primate cages (and some birds to the right side)

March 2017
Interesting - if I'm placing these correctly these were all birds when I was there.
 
directly out of frame at the right side of this photo is the waterbird aviary (the one with the herons, darters, woolly-necked storks, etc), if that helps.

In this photo, the right-hand enclosure is for ring-tailed lemurs, then (going left) scarlet and glossy ibis, then squirrel monkeys, then the De Brazza's monkey. Or maybe the squirrel monkeys were next to the lemurs - I forget, but I think each cage was the length of two windows.
 
Thanks - yep, these were all birds in 2012.
 
I liked these for the primates housed in them. The monkeys and lemurs were small enough that the cages were a reasonable enough size, and there was plenty of furniture inside and also plants. They're a bit garish but that didn't bother me overly much.

I see from your species list that these three primates weren't even at the zoo on your visit.
 
Indeed - the chimps were the only non-Asian primates on show.
