NATIONAL AVIARY

Welcome to The National Aviary in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

An aviary is a building where birds are kept – and they can fly around!  At the National Aviary, people can walk through big rooms with exotic birds! Now that’s cool! Even better – there are programs just for kids here!

There are beautiful and colorful birds everywhere!National Aviary IMG_8205I pretended I was a great explorer in the jungle discovering ponds and beautiful birds for the first time!National Aviary  IMG_8188What will you pretend?National Aviary  IMG_8245The National Aviary is very cool.  My lucky humans walked through the different bird habitats over and over again. Boy, I wish dogs were allowed. In any case, it’s Mr. Pish Approved!
