Birds

We have a wide range of birds, including parrots and birds of prey, that we are proud to be able to care for here at Tropical Wings.

With at least one flying display each and every day there is plenty of opportunity at our wildlife park to see these beautiful creatures at their best - flying free. On arrival, check your map or show schedule for full details of the Parrot Show and the Birds of Prey demonstration.

You will find the Parrot Show (seasonal)  in the Discovery Kingdom (near Reception) and you can watch the majestic Birds of Prey Flying Display in the Main Arena.

Every effort is made to ensure the livestock represented in all forms of advertising, including the website, is on exhibit.  However, in the interests of animal welfare, Tropical Wings reserves the right to withdraw any livestock without prior notice.
