I'm not usually one for visiting animals in captivity, but I would have to say the K.L. Bird Park is one of the better 'zoos' I have seen. The majority of the birds have plenty of space to move around and it does give children the opportunity of seeing the birds up close.
I was disappointed that there was a 'circus' performance with the traing of some of the birds to 'act' for an audience, but in generally the conditions are good for birds in captivity.
The Park is close enough to the centre of K.L. to make it a half-day trip.

Not less than 12 kinds of butterflies can be seen in the park.
The park is an imitation of the butterfly's natural habitat. It includes more than 15,000 plants from 100 species that have been used to recreate a Malaysian rainforest atmosphere. There is a nursery and breeding area for the butterflies.
Facilities include an informative insect museum.

The bird park in kl is an inique experience esp if u hv kids travelling with u. The fact that its fully covered by huge nets mean that birds are flying around and the larger ones are walkin with you. U can feed the ostrich, watch a bird show, feed the eagles or just stroll around taking in the place. There are some parrots that wish you the time of the day as well! Tip: carry caps or umbrellas if u visit during sept. It was hot! Also there is a photo booth where you can have birds placed on you for a photo op. The place is well maintained. And it was a pleasant experience. Its a must visit for family and kids.the park is open from 9am to 7pm dailym entry fee for non malays is rm 28 for adults and rm 20 for kids. The entire park is 20.9 acres.

Located in the serene and scenic Kuala Lumpur Lake Garden, KL Bird Park is one of the renowed ecotourism destination strategically located in the heart of the Kuala Lumpur city. It is also the home to over 2000 birds from about 200 species of local and foreign birds.
The Bird Park offers a great opportunity for photographers to "capture" some stunning creatures on film. I loved the place.

Although the park does look like it has seen better days, its a bit shabby in places, it was still worth the visit and was a nice finish to a long day of walking. As we moved around the park we could hear the call to prayer from the Mosque at the back of the park. Birds slowly went about there business and there were only one other couple in the park. We had the place to ourselves which was nice.

While jungle trekking is great for some, for others a bird park is more suitable.
The park is the world's largest free flight aviary (20 acres), boosting to have over 3,000 birds.
Most birds are allowed to fly around freely, allowing you a wonderful chance to get up close and take some great pictures.
Birds who might cause harm like the large horn bill are kept in their own personal shelters. While it may be hard to get a good picture, it's about the only way you will see one close up.
The walkways are gently slopped and well maintained, which makes for easy walking and chair accessible.
Ice cream and cold drinks are also sold in the park.
You need to allow at least a couple of hours to truly enjoy.

20.9 acres, 3000 birds, 200 species. Most of the birds are free to roam in aviaries resembling their natural habitat. Watch out for the hornbills and peacocks and don't miss the waterfall aviary!
Daily activities include bird feedings and bird shows. It is a nice way to spend the day just strolling and snapping pictures of the feathered residents of the park.
The bird park is located in the scenic KL Lake Gardens area, which also boast the Deer Park, Orchid Garden, Hibiscus Garden and Planetarium Negara. If you want to visit all these places in a single day, keep in mind that not all are open on public holidays.
The bird park is open from 9am to 7.30pm daily. Admission charges are on the steep side, but cheaper for locals, so if you are not a local but look like one, say you are one!

I can go on and one putting more pics of the birds but I think this is enough...after that we also went for a bird show - it is quite entertaining esplly for kids...but we are marvelled that birds can also be taught tricks..
The bird shows are around 1/2 hour and usually around 12:30pm and also another during the afternoon 3:30 pm but if it is a public holiday there is one around 10:30 am.
