Description

These colourful beauties are commonly known as Hunting Cissa's. A shy bird originally living in South East Asia's lowlands, was found at the largest 'free flying' aviary in Canada (Bird Kingdom, Niagara Falls). Here, he pops up from his bowl of goodies and gives me a look.

It sure is...I can't wait too I go back there!! This place has three sections with water falls/lush plants (probably like Florida's plants)... and the architecture was amazing so next time I go there I will photograph the insides to show... it is something to see.
Type in Bird Kingdom, Niagara Falls - (Canada).. on River Rd. for some history/pic's..

I liked the older man in the white shirt and suspenders. He was the most HIP dancer there!!! And the girls doing a few SANDAL FEET MOVES. :)

A cruise? Ah yes! I remember you saying you were thinking about it. GOOD FOR YOU! Wish I could say the same!

Night night! -Laura #7992642
