The National Aviary is a wonderful place for families. I thought that
the aviary would be bigger than it actually is, but what they lack in
size is made up for in variety.
The National Aviary is in a residential neighborhood. Parking is easy,
and the Children's Museum is a few blocks away. The Aviary itself is
very nice, including large habitat rooms for different natural
environments.
The National Aviary, located in the history West
Park area of Pittsburgh’s North Side, is the only independent,
non-profit indoor aviary in the country. This is quite a feat, as in
the 90s the city almost voted to shut it down due to budget crunches.
I'm pretty sure the National Aviary is the best place to go look at
birds on the East Coast.
The National Aviary spends a lot of time training its birds and has
some of the best bird trainers on its staff. The reason that they
spend so much time training birds is to get them used to being around
humans.
Who knew the National Aviary was in PIttsburgh?? RIght up the street
from the Andy Warhol Museum, no less. The aviary is small, but clean
and well-organized. The tropical room and demonstrations are
interesting.
