Blue-crowned Laughingthrush
It’s a birdwatcher’s delight at the Zoo's Audubon Aviary where all of the species in this exhibit are targeted by cooperative conservation initiatives among members of the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA). The Aviary is also home to a family group of critically endangered Blue-crowned Laughingthrush birds who celebrated this spring with another successful hatching of chicks! Audubon Zoo is the only zoo in North America currently raising this rare species.
