Well worth the $8 for parking. We visited here with our kids and stayed almost 2 hours. The show at the amphitheater was educational and super fun! We got to see several different birds and had a Harris hawk fly just over our heads. The row of enclosures near the hospital also had a variety of birds including a kookaburra, pelicans, bald eagles, emu, barn owls, and quite a few more. Definitely plan to stop in and support the awesome work done here if you are in the St Louis area or driving through!

Visited this space on a trip from Miami, Florida. The charge is by the carload and there’s plenty of free parking on the grounds. There are lots of signs about “do not,” other than that, we enjoyed the grounds loaded with many types of birds. The animals seem content, very well cared for, and the property is clean. There are fun shows at additional charge and was worth the cost. Bryan, the manager was at hand and answered my family and I questions about the birds, staff and the free bird houses displayed near the gift shop. This is a great place to spend the day and a great place to bring the family.

All the staff members were really nice and helpful. All the facilities were clean/well-maintained. There were a lot more exhibits than I expected, and all the birds were content. I was surprised at the age of a few birds...I didn't think they lived that long. They're in a safe environment, so that makes sense. The cost of admission was good, and it was so peaceful...we'll definitely be back.

For only 8 dollars a car it's a fine addition to dates, road trips and days out. They have a variety of birds to view and even some rabbits. Also with I being attached to Lone Elk Park you can also go and see elk, bison, and geese. The scenery around the whole park is beautiful and you get fully immersed in the beauty of Missouri. Can wait for further additions. Definitely worth the money, and a little more for donation.

Can I just come walk around the park or do I have to do a specific tour?

Yes, you can walk around the Bird Sanctuary without a guide. They have some nice trails to hike as well. Gift shop and playground for kids too. Have fun and say hi to Poe for me!
