Do you know how many of those birds are really still present in Tropical Encounters?

I'm not quite sure. The ones not in italics I've seen recently, while the others have been seen relatively recently. Most of those listed were on a species list given to me by a docent in August of 2020.

A docent gave me what was supposed to be an accurate list this summer. Most of those species weren't listed, but I also saw several species that weren't listed so...

I'm just going to have to assume that most of the listed species are still around, as the Tanagers are incredibly hard to find & as you said, more birds not listed have been seen fairly recently.
 
I've seen the tanagers before, but only one or 2 times I think.
I saw a glimpse of one before it flew away on top of the little coral reef cylinder tank in tropical encounters, I forget which species.
