23 Jul 2026. 9.53 am. A very brief group nap before breakfast is served by the bird keeper at 10am. Seven American Flamingos at the Bird Paradise nap for less than 5 minutes. Bright blue sky with sunshine but cool weather at this time.
Bird Keepers start the day by checking and finding all our birds, cleaning exhibits and feeding the birds. During the middle part of the day we prepare diets for the next day, do projects like breeding set-ups, enrichment and training projects, observations, or exhibit work.
