Cuckoo Corner
Daily (May 31 - October 10)
10:00 & 12:00
Our brand new Cuckoo Corner is a chance for guests to interact closely with a trained flock of Guira Cuckoos. Visitors will have the opportunity to assist the trainers in teaching the birds to do a variety of behaviors. Currently the birds are station trained and guests provide the reward (food!) to the birds when they remain on their assigned station. Stay on your toes, because these clever birds will try to outsmart you! This exhibit is a true immersion into training techniques used by the best zoos in the country.

1:00 PM Bird Show
Tracy Aviary brings to you another edition of Tracy Aviary Investigates. This program will investigate into the lives of an elite class of avian superheroes, known simply as the "Aviators". These "superheroes" will show off their powers daily at the 1:00 PM bird show in the bird show theatre. This program features 14 of our bird show stars, some who will fly just inches over the audiences' heads.
11:00 AM and 3:00 PM Bird Program
These short 15-minute programs will feature three of our bird show stars. These informational programs will focus on one of these topics: Rainforest birds, Birds of Prey, and Scavengers.

These programs incorporate both trained birds and biofacts to achieve a greater appreciation of our feathered friends.
