Sadly they remain closed and have no public reopening date set at this time. Just a hopeful anticipation for spring 2021.

*It was difficult to get a picture of the sea turtle in the background, did not want to come close that day.*

We visited last October 2019 and as usual I took way too many pictures. It’s easy to see how happy and well cared for all the animals are here. We spent many hours viewing the friendly sea turtles, gorgeous birds of prey, numerous wildlife birds, tortoise, toad, tropical fish and jelly fish on this visit. During the day they do numerous educational viewings. The tortoise got to go for a walk much to my delight. The American Kestrel had a meet and greet in their auditorium. Plus Sapphire (Loggerhead sea turtle) posed for a few dozen pictures.

Overall a wonderful day in the neighborhood. I look forward to their reopening.

*Sapphire, love how it looks like she’s outside with the reflection.*

*Western toad, why I think she’s looking at me.*

*The tank is circular, so the reflections are unique.*

I use a combination of my iPhone and my Fujifilm X-E2 camera for all my photographs. Just depends on where I am as to which one I'll use to take my pictures with. I love to write original stories combined with my photographs. If you'd like to send me a message or comment, please do so at; maggie@hungryones.com We just celebrated our 14th Anniversary this October 2016!! So exciting!! 2015 A couple since 2003 and now on the precipice of this new journey, our fondest hope is this website serves a purpose. One of useful information presented in an elegant, beautiful photographic setting. Together we love to discover new restaurants, food trucks, diners, café’s, huts or where ever we find food being served. The love of artful, carefully crafted, passionately orchestrated food, beverages and let’s not forget desert, Is something we both enjoy immensely. Immersing ourselves in the history, culture and surrounding locations of our adventures hopefully leads to not only meeting new people, but making new friends, sharing ideas, listening to stories and learning something new everyday.

You got some great photos especially of the turtles! We will have to visit again next year.

Thanks I think they posed for me. Yes that will be nice when they reopen to the public. You can get a private tour for 2 hours up to ten people in your family. Cheaper for members at $150. and regular price $250.
