Garden Wildlife UK

I went to the Cotswold Birdland Park and Gardens today.

Not too bad for £10. It's basically a zoo with only birds.

There was a decent variety and I got there just in time for the penguin feeding. Then 20 mins later the pelicans got their fish as well. The park keeper doing the feeding gave a good entertaining commentary full of information and anecdotes on the birds.

They also had caged enclosures with various owls, finches and others. As well as a hot house with a handful of tropical birds.

A nice afternoon out.

Lots of extra pictures here

A great set of Kev

Been there many times Kev and you have captured some of the magic with awesome photography. If you ever do the Hawk Conservancy in Winchester, I would love to see what your camera skill catches when the vultures fly over heads. I was rubbish (no surprise) and didn't capture a single photo worth sharing.

Thanks

That Hawk place looks interesting. Not too far away for me. There's also one at Batsford that I keep meaning to try and get to. Maybe have to try and get to one or other before the summer is out!

At last I can view your pics, Kev - wow brilliant
