Birds

 

From tropical birds to birds of prey, Woodside Wildlife Park is home to a variety of bird species, from the tiny tropical Java Sparrows and Mouse-Birds to awe-inspiring Eagles. Our birds come from all around the world, from the bitterly-cold arctic circle to the swelteringly hot South American grasslands.

Rosa the Steppe Eagle - Tropical birds and birds of prey at Woodside Wildlife Park

Steppe Eagle

One of the first bird species to arrive at Woodside way back in 2001, Rosa, our Steppe Eagle is an impressive and incredibly hardy species. Native to Russia and Mongolia, they often feed on fresh carrion, but will catch prey up to the size of a hare.

Pedro the Crested Caracara - Tropical birds and birds of prey at Woodside Wildlife Park

Crested Caracara

By far the cheekiest bird at Woodside, Pedro is one of our most infamous display birds. A high level of intelligence and an omnivorous scavenging nature has resulted in a very successful wild population throughout Central America.

Striated Caracara - Tropical birds and birds of prey at Woodside Wildlife Park

Striated Caracara

Endemic to the Falkland Islands, the Striated Caracara is not a fussy eater; anything from carrion and offal, to rodents and seabirds are on the menu. Wild numbers of this species are being helped by protected conservation areas.

White Stork - Tropical birds and birds of prey at Woodside Wildlife Park

White Stork

Our White Storks are always happy to stop their day of fishing and sunbathing to pose for a photo opportunity!
