This October will mark the 15th anniversary of Sylvan Heights Bird Park, and to celebrate, we’re bringing back BOTH of our signature events!  Previously cancelled due to COVID, our 2021 Birds, Brews and BBQ event will take place on October 9th, along with the grand opening of our newest aviary, The Birds of Paradise.  On October 23rd, we’ll be hosting our 2021 Annual Fundraiser, and this year’s theme is The Year of The Flamingo. Tickets sales for both events begin August 9th.  Stay tuned to our website, Facebook, and Instagram for more information!

Two Rhinoceros Hornbills are now on exhibit in a spacious new aviary located next to the tree house! Native to the tropical forests of Borneo, Sumatra, Java, and Malaysia, these large arboreal birds feed primarily on fruit, but may also eat insects and small animals. They are named for the large orange horn, called a "casque", on the top of their bill. The casque is hollow, made of keratin, and is thought to help amplify the sound of their calls in the forest.
