Entranace to Blean Down Bird Park

This also doubles as a cafe open to non-visitors to the bird garden
Yes, this is Brean Down in North Somerset, a coastal bird garden which I believe has now closed. I don't remember any remarkable species here, most were common in aviculture at the time.

Blean Bird Park was mainly a parrot collection situated in woodland in Kent, it is now known as 'Druidstone Park' and no longer has a bird collection, although I believe they hold deer, old English goats, and guanaco, with a theme of woodland crafts and sculptures throughout the site. While not many remarkable species were held here in the days of it being a bird park, I do remember hyacinthine macaws, and the parrot collection was very diverse.
 
Surely this is Brean Down Bird Garden in Somerset. The closed Blean Bird Park was in Kent.
Yes you are quite correct,it is Brean Down and not Blean Down,but atleast I attempt to label what the photo is ,insted of just a date and location!!!

Thank-you for the Blean information - the sort of place I'd have liked to have visited. I did visit Brean Down in 2006 and earlier this year I was trying to find out whether or not it had closed, but without success.
