Toucan & BrefToucan & BrefToucan & Bref

I fancied a pint of Guinness after this one!
Right beside the Iguazu Falls on the Brazilian side you will find the Parque das Aves bird zoo. This contained habitat / aviaries contains loads of Brazilian, Amazon and foreign birds, many species of parrots and toucans. Sarah and I are certainly not the world’s biggest bird spotters, but we really enjoyed seeing the variety of birds here up close and in a nice environment. We could even walk through some of the aviaries with the birds flying and hopping around. Some highlights included interacting with the Toucans, Macaws and walking through the hummingbird & butterfly enclosure – it was like something out of Avatar!
We hope you enjoy the pictures; we enjoyed taking them.
