Shriek Week at Birdland

Birdland visitors will be able to let their imagination
fly away with them during October Half Term with a special Halloween themed
‘Myths & Legends’ event (Saturday 22^nd – Sunday 30^th October)

Discover why owls are considered to be so wise; where the
legend of the phoenix came from; and find out which bird call the Romans
believed to mean imminent death!

With its combination of woodland, riverside and gardens,
Birdland features more than 500 birds, ranging from birds of prey and parrots
to cassowaries and cranes in a mix of free-flying and aviary displays.

See England’s only breeding group of King
Penguins in their newly refurbished enclosure, explore the immersive Out of
Africa area, and venture into the woodland and encounter life-sized dinosaurs
lurking between the trees in the Jurassic Journey area.
