Saturday Critters ~ 198 ~

Bird Kingdom
located in Niagara Falls, Canada, it is the world's largest indoor free flying aviary.
As I am looking through the brochure, 
preparing this entry,
it seems as though we "may" have missed the upper level, 
The Lost Kingdom
YeP - I'm pretty sure we missed that level but I think we were good, anyway.

- the birds were beautiful -

There was one floor dedicated to the big birds.


This bird was my favorite, a big talker and very colorful!





The next 2 images capture the area that was dedicated to the smaller birds.



The small birds were difficult to photograph, they were like little birds on steroids, always moving!





This is "not" a 5 minute walk from the falls, nor is it "next" to the Rainbow Bridge.
It was nice, I enjoyed it, but I think one visit is enough.

    It sounds very interesting Debbie. I missed it when we were there a few years ago. I don’t even remember the building. The birds are very colorful.

    Birds can be so beautiful and colorful. I love to watch them but I am so glad I don't have any in the house. My brothers birds are so nasty. And the big one is MOODY.

    I loved the colors on the first one; they are brilliant. You got some magnificent photos of the big birds with such a variety of color. I think the ones you got of the little ones were spectacular too. You do know how to capture good bird shots.
    Loved this one! Blessings and hugs~
