Chilean Flamingo Update

We now have an incredible eighteen Chilean Flamingo Chicks that have hatched so far this year at the park!

They are a range sizes and can be seen out daily exploring the enclosure with their parents.

They are born with a white fluffy baby plumage which is gradually taken over by larger, grey feathers. Their beautiful Pink feathers only start to appear when they are nearly a year old, and it’s only at three to four years of age that they have their full adult plumage.

Once the chicks have are old enough to leave the nest, they group together in a crèche which is supervised by an adult. Here they can socialise with one another and keep safe!

Seaview Wildlife Animals in Action!

DSC_0654
The photographic opportunities here at the park are superb, and so each year we run a photography competition to find the best photos taken by our visitors!
 
Seaview is the perfect place to get snaps of your favourite animals, all within an unspoilt and natural environment. 

For close-up, clear studies of animals and birds, photographers will be pleased to hear that most of the Park's enclosures have "camera flaps" - these allow for unhindered photographic images - with no fencing or boundaries in the way.


The theme for this year is “Animals in action” where images can show animals on their own, in groups or interacting with a Keeper or visitor – as long as they are action-orientated!

Here is a sneak preview of some of the fantastic entries we have had so far:
