KENANSVILLE, Fla. — Sometimes the best way to appreciate a bird isn’t from across an enclosure — it’s stepping into an environment where the sights and sounds of the birds surround you.
Visitors to Wild Florida Adventure Park can add a different kind of wildlife experience to their day while exploring the walk-through bird aviary inside the Gator Park.
Instead of simply moving from one animal habitat to another, a walk-through aviary gives guests an opportunity to enter the birds’ environment and experience them from a new perspective.
It’s a particularly fun stop for families and photographers, with colorful birds, movement and bird calls creating an experience that can feel very different from the rest of the Gator Park.
Birds are among the most diverse animals on Earth, with adaptations that allow different species to fly, climb, forage, communicate and thrive in environments ranging from tropical forests to Florida wetlands.
At Wild Florida, the aviary adds another layer to a Gator Park featuring more than 200 native and exotic animals.
And bird lovers have another reason to make a day of it.
A Wild Florida airboat tour through the Headwaters of the Florida Everglades offers an opportunity to look for birds living in their natural environment. Central Florida’s marshes and waterways support an impressive variety of birdlife, meaning the wildlife experience can continue long after guests leave the aviary.
Families can also explore the Drive-thru Safari Park, traveling in their own vehicle through expansive habitats featuring giraffes, zebras, bison, wildebeest and other animals.
From walking among colorful birds to watching native birds soar above an airboat, Wild Florida offers visitors several ways to experience the feathered side of the animal kingdom.
So when you visit Wild Florida, take some time to spread your wings and explore.
