"Feathers & Scales" exhibit
Brookfield Zoo, Chicago, Illinois
One of my favorite indoor exhibits
The exhibit "Feathers & Scales" is a combination of birds, reptiles and amphibians. This view is of a desert scene of southwestern United States including many bird species native to the area. After the zoo closed the "Reptile House" as it was in need of major repairs, they combined the reptiles and amphibians into various other exhibits throughout the zoo. This exhibit has the most and they changed the name of the building to Feathers and Scales - formerly known as "Be A Bird".
Years ago this building housed the penguins until the new "Living Coast" exhibit was built in 1997. "The Living Coast" , home to the Humboldt penguins, is an exhibit showing the coasts of Chile and Peru in South America, where the world's driest desert meets a fertile ocean system.
