An aviary is a large enclosure designed to house birds, allowing them to fly freely while being protected from predators. These structures can be found in zoos, wildlife parks, and botanical gardens, providing a naturalistic environment for various bird species. Aviaries often include plants, trees, and water features to mimic the birds' natural habitats. Visitors to an aviary can observe birds up close, learning about their behaviors and characteristics. Some aviaries focus on specific types of birds, such as tropical species or native wildlife, while others may feature a diverse range of birds from different regions, enhancing the educational experience about biodiversity and conservation.
