Free to Fly in Captivity
There are some "free fly" exhibits within the Brookfield Zoo. These exhibits offer excellent opportunities to photograph birds. Obviously, the birds are much easier to locate than in the wild. Yet, nothing separates the birds from the photographer and the birds assume many natural behaviors. Following are a few of the "free fly" exhibits that I have visited at the zoo:
The Living Coast
Inca Tern
Chirping Gull
Humboldt Penguin
Habitat Africa! The Savannah
Taveta Golden Weaver
Reptiles and Birds House
Green Winged Macaw
Bali Mynah
White-Crested Laughing Thrush
Black Curassow
Indian Lake
White Trumpeter Swan
Formal Pool
American White Pelican
General Grounds
Peacock
