Iguazu Bird Park

This post has been written in December last year.

The attraction number one of Iguazu is, of course, Iguazu Falls. And number two is the other half of the Falls located in the neighbouring country. But besides the Falls there are other interesting attractions here as well.

The greatest Bird Park in South America or Parque Das Aves, was opened in 1994 and is located on the side of Brazil, about 200 meters from the entrance to Iguazu Falls.



There are a great many smaller cages and three hangar - sized birdhouses here where it is possible to walk inside.

50% of the birds are either confiscated from the smugglers or transferred from other rehabilitation centers. 43 % of the inhabitants were born in the park. The endangered species have their own area. Read more on the website : www.parquedasaves.com

Here, in this one can enjoy the world's largest colony of Ararajubasid (Golden Conure,). Ararajuba is one of the symbols of Brazil. The national flag has the same colors.

Free macaws in the trees.

A suitable sales outlet.

Anyway, toucans were not afraid of visitors, they came closer and stuck their peaks into your pocket.

And picked any other items of interest.

And here's in the end one more image of Iguazu, from the side of Brazil..
