Beautiful place! So many birds and very knowledgeable staff. They have a little area of reptiles and meteorites and beautiful gardens for you to walk around. They have a big bee hive, it looks really cool and you get to see it up close. I love this place and will return! I want to go to the observatory, but went during the day, so I didn't get to, so I will return.

We really loved this facility. The kids had a great time but I think my husband had just as much fun. We learned about a Barn Owl and many other animals. The kids loved looking for the different animals on the list. Thank you Everyone there!
