Watch birds of prey like Dakota the Bald Eagle and Tangee the vulture fly free near the Fun Farm, plus a great up-close photo opportunity at the end of the display. Purchase some nectar at the 2pm Lorikeet Feeding Experience and join in the fun feeding these lively, mischievous, colourful parrots in the walk-through Rainbow Aviary. Have your camera ready!

At 3pm enjoy the fascinating ‘Free Flying Bird Show’ including Amazon parrots, choughs and others, flying free on the stage and across the picnic lawn. The impressive Scarlet Macaw Spectacle is at the end of the 3pm show. You will be moved by the sight of these stunningly beautiful parrots flying out of their aviary and soaring into the sky. Another great photo opportunity.

Have a cockatoo fly to your hand! A unique and fun way for the staff and birds to fundraise for Paradise Park’s conservation projects. You have the opportunity to go up on the main stage at the end of the 3pm ‘Free Flying Bird Show’ to give a £1 or £2 donation. Roseate Cockatoos Billy, Rizzo or Rio will be ready to fly to your hand, collect the coin, fly back to the presenter and place it into the collection tin. Great fun and a very popular experience, all for a good cause.

Animal lovers will adore the Fun Farm. You can purchase a small bag of food for 65p on entry (limited supply) to feed the adorable little Pygmy goats and Ouessant sheep. This interactive experience allows visitors to get up close and personal with these charming animals, making it a memorable part of your visit. And don't miss the guinea pigs in Pets Corner. Plus, 'Paradise Island' outdoor playground with climbing towers, a slide into the 'river', and the chance to ride a rocking dolphin. On good weather days Zebedee, the Jungle Express Train will be out for a spin! Board the train near the picnic lawn and set off through the gardens of Glanmor House on a small route of two circuits around the house grounds (not the whole Park). Includes the top section of Parrot Jungle, a trip through a tunnel with Twinkly lights leading to behind the scenes at the back of the house. There is a small extra charge, and train times can be checked upon arrival.

A range of light lunches, cakes and cream teas are available in the Otter Pool Café with plenty of picnic tables and benches throughout the Park. Plus, a snack bar inside the JungleBarn Play Centre, with great tasting hot dogs and cheeseburgers, or snack on hot crunchy crisps and treat yourself to a hot chocolate with cream and marshmallows, plus, free WIFI. A leader in conservation and home to Operation Chough and the World Parrot Trust. A wonderful and worthwhile day out.
