Amazing Bathgate! What with your butterflies and birds, now a Toucan. Is it in a zoo or tropical park or something?

It's beautiful! It looks like outside at the San Diego Zoo here. The exotic birds have huge open-air aviaries with lots of palms. :>))

They are amazing to see. The aviary must be magical. Thank you.

Yes, they are wire-mesh there's five there at the San Diego Zoo. The largest is 4 or 5 stories high. It has huge Ficus trees, exotic palms, tropical fish and so much more.

You are very fortunate to live right there. Really sounds like an experience.

Yes, the San Diego Zoo bird aviaries are quite an experience. I think the largest one is about 75' tall.

I've posted several pics over the years of the plants and birds in the aviaries.

Here's a pic of one which is unfortunately not there anymore:

Here's the Owen's Aviary, which is the largest aviary at the San Diego Zoo.
