Designed to accommodate exotic bird species commonly found in India, the park features a variety of attractions. Visitors can marvel at African Love Birds, Budgerigars, White Swans, Black Swans, Wood Ducks, Golden Pheasants, Yellow Golden Pheasants, Green Wing Macaws, Dun Conures, African Grey Parrots, Finches, and Melanistic Pheasants. The collection includes aquatic, terrestrial, and tamed species, offering a diverse and enriching experience for bird enthusiasts and nature lovers alike.
