Well known as the home of the World Parrot Trust, feeding the lorikeets with a pot of nectar is a great opportunity to get close to these colourful little members of the parrot family in their walk-through aviary. There are also Free Flying Bird Shows with many other parrot species displaying their flying skills, as well as their voices, plumage and unusual characteristics.
A few lucky children are picked to help feed the penguins at their twice-daily feeding times, and these are followed by a photocall with one of the friendly hand-reared birds. Down at the Fun Farm everyone is welcome to feed the pygmy goats, miniature sheep, donkeys and rabbits with a big handful of carrots.
The Park is open year round at 10am with a smaller winter season schedule from Monday 31st October. For the current timetable phone the Infoline on 01736 753365 or go to the Paradise Park website www.paradisepark.org.uk.
