Cincinnati is incorrect. The only things now closed are the 3 walk-through aviaries inside World of Birds. The building itself is open, as there's a bunch of birds behind glass/netting as well. The closed aviaries are glass walled, so you can still see inside them and catch some species, as well. The Wings of Wonder bird shows returned yesterday.
 
Sedgewick County Zoo - Australia/South American bird exhibits have reopened to the public.

Also @birdsandbats maybe under the "zoos that removed their bird-flu related restrictions" you can put if all their restrictions are removed, or just some.
 
Akron Zoo - penguins, red-breasted geese, white storks, guineafowl have been moved on-exhibit. Flamingos are also on exhibit but their habitat is undergoing renovations. Remainder of birds are off exhibit.

Lincoln Park Zoo will be returning their birds to their exhibits over the next month as stated an email courtesy of @MeiLover.

“Over the course of the next month, species will return to their respective areas beginning with ostriches, then birds of prey, then African penguins and the reopening of McCormick Bird House. It is still to be determined when the most at-risk species, including chickens at Farm-in-the-Zoo and the species at Swan Pond will return as these habitats are freely accessible to wild birds.”

Seems like nothing but positive changes all around the country.
