Yes, and this aviary has a nice selection of colorful birds to complete the theming!
 
I saw:
Demoiselle Crane
*Sulawesi Hornbill
Masked Lapwing (V. m. miles)
Reeves's Muntjac
Swan Goose
Javan Pond Heron
Giant Asian Pond Turtle
Malayan Pond Turtle (Cuora amboinensis kamaroma)

I also saw a large tortoise which is probably an Asian Brown Tortoise.

*Did not see but saw signs for.

A full list of mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians and cartilaginous fish species on show at Lowry Park in October 2013 can be found in my trip list posted here: http://www.zoochat.com/22/maguari-florida-georgia-338272/index8.html#post746010

I think Ituri meant specifically for this aviary - the following were definitely seen or labelled here (I may have forgotten a few as some species doubled up around the zoo):

Demoiselle Crane
Masked Lapwing
Victoria Crowned Pigeon
Satyr Tragopan
Sunda Teal
Swan Goose
Javan Pond Heron
Reeves' Muntjac
Amboina Box Turtle

I remember thinking it odd how ground-based the species were, overall. I think the hornbill sign mentioned by Thylo had been removed when I was there (or I missed it!).

had they also removed the word "Sulawesi" from the front of the aviary?
