July 22nd, 2012. This is a half-acre habitat that has a wooden boardwalk that winds through a heavily shaded area. Cattle egrets were out in droves but it was difficult to spot many other birds in what seemed like a large, half-empty aviary. A woodpecker had a cage to itself, as did a great horned owl, but overall this aviary has a lot of unfulfilled potential. Apparently there are over 70 birds of 30 different species (according to the aquariums website) but I saw probably 20 egrets so Im not confident in those quoted numbers.
