Bird Shows
Sit down, relax, and experience beautiful birds from all around the world for free. These interesting creatures will help our trainers show you how they live and survive in the wild. Some may even fly only inches from your head! You may meet a barred owl, an African crowned crane, or Einstein, an African gray parrot with quite a vocabulary! Shows are subject to cancellation due to weather and are presented in the News-Sentinel Amphitheatre.

Bird Shows begin April 18, 2009. THERE ARE NO BIRD SHOWS ON MONDAYS

Zoo Chats
Look for the yellow and red Keeper Chat signs throughout the zoo for free, fun and informative animal presentations by the people who know them best- Zookeepers! Any programs may be cancelled due to weather or animal-related problems without notice. Keeper Chats begin April 1, 2009
