Previoulsy I posted some pictures of 4-legged animals I photographed at the Philly Zoo. Here are the feathered residents that I saw there.
I saw this tropical bird in the Primate Reserve where the orangutan, chimps and other primates are housed. I have no idea what kind of bird this is. It was behind glass walls so I couldn't use a flash. 
[Update: This is the green aracari found in the tropical rain forests and marches of South America.]

I was tickled pink to see a pair of Mandarin ducks at the zoo. They and the wood ducks really facinate me because they are so colorful and small like cute toys.

And, of course, a zoo would not be a proper zoo without the peacocks running around all over the place.
