Bali bird park is about half hour drive from Kuta. I rented a car with a driver at that time to visit the Park. This park has a collection of almost 1000 birds of 250 different species from Indonesia, Africa and South America. Not only birds, you can also see Komodo Dragon, a giant lizard which is a descendant of the dinosaur, on the display. The park also exhibits more than 2000 tropical plants.
Pelicans on the display
Some birds, including exotic and rare birds, being displayed are the Bird of Paradise from Papua, Hornbill, the Bali Starling, Javan Hawk, Servent Eagles, Pelicans, Cranes, Parrots, Owls etc. The park is designed as natural as possible for the birds, so you can see a bird walking along the pavement.
Look... it is on the pathway!!
The park is also a birds conservation. It protects and conserves the rare and endanger species. You can see some endanger baby birds that are placed in the incubators through observation windows .
Other activities you can do are feeding the birds during interactive feeding time, taking unique pictures with a bird on your shoulder, seeing bird show etc.
The park is open daily from 9am - 6.30pm. The admission fee is quite expensive though for me. For adult is 22,50USD (including service charge) per person. It is a good place to visit if you have plenty of time during your visit to Bali, you like birds or you want to expose your children with many species of birds. Otherwise, it is the least priority place to be visited.
