Nandankanan Bird Enclosure

It's another bird enclosure in Nandankanan where you can find those birds which are set free. These birds are kept inside places covered by some fence like bar wire, etc. Typically, flightless birds are seen here & the main attraction is the Cassowary which is analogous to the Ostrich.

Best thing for me. It's like a safari , you get inside and there a no of variety parrot present. They are free flying around you. And you also see some duck variety there as well. You entre there free of cost and enjoy the inside beauty. In variety among parrot I love the color whose total body is yellow with light orange beak. Major parrots are conior variety
