You might be puzzled by this title. In reality, Kish Bird Garden<\/strong> is part of the Kish Dolphins Complex<\/a><\/strong>. Established in 2001 by Hossein Sabet, owner of the Dariush Grand Hotel, it was the first dolphinarium park in Iran. The uniqueness of Kish Aquarium<\/a> and Dolphinarium has been unparalleled. In 2014, the park’s ownership transferred to Seyed Abdolreza Mousavi, owner of Zagros Airlines. Spanning approximately 100 hectares in the southeastern part of Kish Island, the park is divided into several distinct sections, including the Bird Garden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Bird Garden occupies about three hectares of the Dolphinarium Park, hosting over 57 bird species<\/strong>. It is split into two main areas: caged birds and free-flying birds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Caged Birds Section<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This section houses wild birds and those that cannot be freed for various reasons. Designed with lush, beautiful landscapes, visitors can explore this area either on foot or by train buses, observing birds within their enclosures. Each cage features a plaque detailing the inhabitants’ species, scientific names, habitats, diet, living conditions, and characteristics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Free-flying Birds Section<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Beyond the cages lies an open space where domestic and free-flying birds live in near-natural conditions, prevented from escaping by high nets. This area replicates the birds’ natural habitats as closely as possible, ensuring they can breed and live comfortably.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many of these birds originate from Africa, though species from other continents have also been introduced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Be cautious, as these delightful creatures can become defensive and may peck if they feel threatened, hence their containment. The park also features a pond where flamingos dance on their long legs, grey and white pelicans prepare to fish, crowned cranes show off their golden crests, alongside ibises, swans, and various storks.<\/p>\n\n\n
