Visit the National Aviary
Embark on a Rainforest Retreat!
The unmistakable calls of American Flamingoes and melodic chirping of Island Canaries set the tone of the National Aviary’s seasonal theme, Rainforest Retreat!
Step into a lush, vibrant world where every bird call and rustle of tree branches tells a story. Let nature’s symphony of sounds – from the braying of African Penguins to the splashing of water as a Puna Teal goes for a swim – take center stage during NEW Daily Activities, including with General Admission.
Let us help you plan your visit to the ONLY Aviary with a national designation! Purchase your General Admission ticket, then “add on” to customize your experience with the Ultimate Aviary Pass.
