An amazing collection list of rare and threatened S.E. bird species being the mainstay of the Bird Paradise .... Hope that relative newcomers will go on to breed and make a meaningful contribution to enriching threatened bird species within a focus on S.E. Asia.
 
Is the fenced portion beneath the feeding area at Heart of Africa meant for the Wattled Crane? Or there will be other species as well?

Based on the fences, it seems there will be at least 2 fenced area.
