Description:

WATSON ISLAND. Tropical birds have the run of this unusual island park off MacArthur Causeway. Approximately 1100 macaws, parrots and other winged residents join giant reptiles and exotic primates to impart special character to the attraction. Although the 18 landscaped acres showcase some 500 species of plants and flowers, don't come expecting peace and quiet – some of the opinionated inhabitants are neither shy nor retiring. Be sure to catch a performance – the sight of a parrot riding a miniature bike is enough to make even the most jaded visitor smile. Other shows include Winged Wonders (singing Amazons and Andean condors), Reptile Giants (snakes, alligators, crocodiles) and Wild Encounters (apes, tigers, even a liger). |

| | The place was packed and all the chatter of international visitors made it impossible to hear the speakers during the shows. The shows are spread over the park, so to catch them all requires some jogging. There is one snack shack, in the middle of the park, so getting a cool soda is near impossible. They are moving so maybe the new place will have a better setup. |
