"Lugar de las aves" map - Temaiken

"Lugar de las aves" (bird's place) is the famous set of aviaries Temaiken has for representative birds of the five continents. In the past, most of the aviaries were "walkthroug", but due to several issues, about one year ago the institution decided to close them and invest in adequations.

The whole Lugar de las Aves zone seems to be absolutely wonderful, did you get which species are housed in it?
In general, your photo coverage of Temaiken has left an amazing feeling of the park, thanks for all of the uploads. Always curious to learn more about South American zoos.

Thank you. They truly have a great structure in the entire park, and this whole bird zone is probably one of the biggest highlights. Unfortunately, due to the mentioned situation, I was only able to spot a few species, such as southern cassowary, chilean flamingo, black-faced and scarlet ibis, coscoroba swan, yellow cardinal and some other passerine species I can't remember properly.

I'm gonna mention the species that, although I haven't seen, I know they keep in the "walkthroughs". As you can see in the map, they do have a specific aviary for macaws (scarlet and blue-and-yellow), one for amazons (blue-fronted and vinaceous) and one for toucans (toco and keel-billed), as well as one for south american semi aquatic avifauna (which was the one I could take more glimpses and saw some of the mentioned in the first paragraph).

Around the flamingo lake they have three more aviaries: One for Africa (turacos, vulturines, grey-crowned and blue cranes), one for Eurasia (mandarin duck, trumpeter swan) and another for Oceania (moluccan cockatoo, galah). I hope to return at some point in the near future and visit this whole set after the renovations.
