Quaint little place where they’re doing a great job bringing back an endangered species being the Takahē mainly & others. This chicken sized flightless bird has quite vibrant plumage. The aviaries are all large & well setup with plenty of natural foliage where shy birds can retreat. They had some other birds like parakeets & ducks. We got up early to leave our camp site to make their 10.30am presentation by the ranger but unfortunately it was cancelled due to staff shortage. Still worth a look.

사랑스러운 보존 장소 모든 새들은 매우 잘 돌보았고 그들이 야생에 방출 될 수 없거나 야생에서 실현 될 예정인 경우에만 여기에 보관됩니다! 당신이 할 수있는 경우 10시 30분에 갈 것을 확실히 권장합니다. 각각 10 달러에 불과한 랜저 투어가 있으며 파라케이트를 먹이고 타카하 옥에 들어갈 수 있습니다! 더하여 랜저는 훌륭하고 많은 정보를 제공합니다! 10 달러는 또한 보존을 향해 간다! Milford Sound로 가는 길이나 Te Anau 지역에 있다면 확실히 멈추기를 권장합니다!

Currently 6 bird species, all in outdoor enclosures in a park-like setting. There's info signs that explain their natural history. Great relaxing place if you are into nature. Please make a donation if you can afford to. Public toilet available.

There is no pain for these birds living in cages- read the information given! They are rare species, some of them were harmed and would‘nt survive in the wilderness anymore. Others are raised and when they are old enough they get realised into the wild! This center is just awesome and the birds are lovely. I am very thankful to the people fighting to protect these precious native birds ??

An assortment of chickens!!

Much pain for these birds in cages ...

Interesting visit that works on donations. There is no time to feed the birds.

Great sanctuary, lot of birds to see (Kakas, Big dukes, takahes..)

At feeding time, the ranger is great, gives a lot of explanations and let you feed some birds. Kids loved it !

We were disappointed with this place because the animals do not look in shape and the aviaries are very small, they have no place to steal, very bad
