Rescuing the Baby Wood Storks! 🙌 Last week, a huge branch with Wood Stork nests and big baby birds, fell on the Native Rookery boardwalk. Thankfully, no one was hurt and our team jumped into action to help these baby Wood Storks.
We created a temporary nest platform, and Gen (General Curator) with the help of Jim (Curator of Reptiles), Ryan (Maintenance Supervisor) and his team, relocated the nests and baby Wood Storks.

Spread the wing on Parrot Conservation for #WorldParrotDay by sharing posts from us or @parrottag 🦜 Research wildlife-friendly products and ecotourism before your trip. And if you want a parrot or macaw as a pet, then research their lifelong needs and make sure they are not wild-caught.
🦜Find more resources and information on Parrot.org website.
You can meet our flock every day on the perches near the Toucantina Snack Bar and at the Rainforest Review show in the Theater at 2pm.
