We have a bird park close to where we live and I have been hearing great things about it, but we have never visited. Since we buy a yearly membership aquarium pass, we are able to get into other places for free and Sylvan Heights Bird Park is included.I made it a point that the kids and I would get to the park this year when we were finished with our school work. It is not very far from where we live (about a 1 1/2 hour drive) and it is easy to get to and find.
This place is a great place to visit. There are so many birds from all of the continents. You are also able to purchase bird seed to feed to some of the birds. You are also able to get up close to many of the birds. They also have a nice picnic and play area for the kids when you need to take a break.
The park is set up where you are able to walk in a loop and see all of the birds. There are also some trails that lead off of the loop where you are able to look out over a stream and possibly see a beaver or two and their house. We saw a beaver swimming and also saw one of the beaver’s houses.It also doesn’t take long to walk through, but you can spend as much time as you want and take your time learning about the different kinds of birds at the park.
We definitely want to go back again and visit. We ended up at the bird feeding station last and by the time we got there, the birds did not seem hungry anymore since there was a school group there that was feeding them. We would start there the next time we go so that the birds are hungry and will eat the bird food. Below are several pictures from our fun day.
