Row of Aviaries (8 aviaries near Northern Frontier)

What species are in these?

@Kyle's Creatures There are 8 aviaries and 21 species labeled: White-Rumped Shama, Collared Imperial Pigeon, Purple-Tailed Imperial Pigeon, Green-Naped Pheasant Pigeon, Crested Coua, Himalayan Monal, White-Crowned Shrike, Black-Throated Laughingthrush, Blue-Crowned Laughingthrush, Palawan Peacock-Pheasant, Mountain Peacock-Pheasant, Edward's Pheasant, Jambu Fruit Dove, Orange-Bellied Fruit Dove, Black-Naped Fruit Dove, Blyth's Tragopan, Scarlet-Faced Liocichla, Fire-Tufted Barbet, Chinese Hwamei, White-Collared Kingfisher and Magpie Robin.

I loved these aviaries: a quiet corner of the zoo, not ventured into by many visitors, but those who did so while I was there certainly seemed to be pausing, thinking, and observing. The fire-tufted barbets are an especial highlight, here - what a beautiful species!

These aviaries are some of the hidden gems to be found at the San Diego parks...like the Hummingbird Aviary...the Fern Canyon path with zero captive animals...and even the coati exhibit at the Safari Park. Near the coatis, down a short side path, are a couple of aviaries with Taveta Golden Weavers, Snowy-Crowned Robin Chats and Green-Naped Pheasant Pigeons. Did you see those @sooty mangabey ?

@snowleopard No - I didn't! And now, reading this as I eat my breakfast in sunny Sussex, I know I need to return. Due to the previously-posted list of all species at the place, I was aware of the presence of a weaver bird aviary, but didn't come across it. Next time!

Damn....sitting in my hotel in San Diego but about to leave. Spent 2 days at zoo only to realise this morning I had missed these aviaries!!

Did spent a very enjoyable hour - almost alone - in the hummingbird aviary though.
