Tropical Birdland, Desford

Tropical Birdland in the village of Desford, near Leicester.

This little paradise in the middle of England is the perfect place to spend a few hours, relax, have fun and escape the world as we know it. We visit every few weeks so on this occasion I decided to make a little video. Join us in visiting the birds that reside here.

Birds here include: Parrot, Owl, Kea, Macaw (Military, Blue and Yellow, Hyacinth, Scarlet), Cockatiel, Ring-necked and Alexandrine Parakeet, Amazon, African Grey, Caique, Cockatoo, Galah, Dove, Hornbill, Emu, Minah Bird, Sun Conure, Lory, Toucan, Kookaburra, Touraco... (plus wild visitors such as Tit, Pigeon, Sparrow and Robin), many of these are in this video. Some are in aviaries but many are loose and free flying - holding, feeding and playing with the birds is encouraged!

There is also a koi pond, woodland walk, tea room (called The Real Macaw), hatchery (you can see baby birds growing and even buy them) and a gift shop.

Three of my favourite birds are in this video: 'Yellow Thing', a yellow Alexandrine parakeet (don't know if he has a real name); Harry Potter, an Eclectus Parrot (I think?) with a green head but very few feathers elsewhere (he likes saying "Hhmmmmm" a lot); Rosie, an African Grey who is just the softest thing ever, as you will see.
