点评:We came for the flamingos, but the rest of the park held so many treats too. A really enjoyable visit.
A well staged, almost theatrical birds of prey demo is not to be missed. The first bird swooping overhead to the strains of "Circle of Life" was breathtaking. After the demo, it was lovely to be able to see the birds up close.
Otter feeding was quite the spectacle too, and it was great to be able to see this through the windows of the café. (Speaking of which, it was good that they were happy to make a gluten free sandwich to order for my wife so she didn't go hungry.)
Even the train ride was great fun - and enjoyable to spot all the dinosaurs dotted around the park too. The grounds are very well kept and nice to explore. With lots of children's activities/soft play too (which we didn't do, barring the train) this park would be ideal for a family day out. The layout of the park also meant that the children's activities didn't obscure or distract from enjoyment of the animals.
It was really all about the flamingos, though, and we spent time enjoying seeing them in their lovely garden enclosure - and staff members Archie and Nick spotted our flamingo shirts, kindly presenting us with some shed flamingo feathers to take home! Really rounded off the visit perfectly.
翻译:我们来这里是为了看火烈鸟,但公园的其他地方也有很多好玩的东西。这是一次非常愉快的旅行。
精心布置的、几乎是戏剧性的猛禽演示不容错过。第一只鸟在“生命的循环”的旋律下俯冲而下,令人叹为观止。演示结束后,能够近距离看到这些鸟真是太好了。
水獭喂食也是一场壮观的景象,能够透过咖啡馆的窗户看到这一切真是太好了。(说到这个,他们很乐意为我妻子点一份无麸质三明治,这样她就不会挨饿了,这真是太好了。)
即使是坐火车也很有趣——而且很高兴看到公园里到处都是恐龙。场地维护得很好,很适合探索。这里还有很多儿童活动/软体游戏(除了坐火车,我们没有玩),这个公园是全家出游的理想选择。公园的布局也意味着孩子们的活动不会遮挡或分散我们对动物的欣赏。
不过,我们真正关注的是火烈鸟,我们花时间在可爱的花园围栏里欣赏它们——工作人员 Archie 和 Nick 看到了我们的火烈鸟衬衫,好心地送给我们一些脱落的火烈鸟羽毛带回家!这次参观真是完美结束。
