Free flight Bird Show: The first in Africa, with critically endangered species like the Wattled Crane, as well as owls, storks, hornbills and a Cape Vulture in free unrestricted flight - Highly educational and loads of fun. Featuring a cast of birds from North and South America, Africa, Indonesia and Australia, the emphasis is on conservation and education.
