Nature’s wonders: Budapest’s first squirrel and bird park opens! – PHOTOS, VIDEO
Budapest boasts many wonderful sights. Now there’s a special addition to the list: Budapest’s first squirrel and bird park opened! You can find it on Ugró Gyula Sor, Újpest.
Visitors can meet a variety of bird species and squirrels in the newly opened Mókaliget (“Fun Grove”) in Újpest, Budapest’s 4th district, budapestkornyeke.hu writes.
The special zoo was built by the Állatmentő Liga (Animal Rescue League) in cooperation with the municipality of Újpest. The park will include squirrel and bird feeders, baths, hedgehog hutches and an insect hotel.
Kata Bedő, Deputy Mayor of Újpest, posted the following on her Facebook page:
„I’m proud to announce that in just a few weeks, Mókaliget has been completed – the first squirrel and bird park not only in the district, but also in the capital. The tiny grove has new wooden feeders and waterers, but we’ve also installed insect hotels and hedgehog houses, so that all the tiny inhabitants of the Farkaserdő (Wolf Forest) can find a peaceful haven here, whatever the season. A community space for children and adults gives you the chance to put out some food for the animals or just observe them, all in a safe, idyllic environment.”
The local politician added that the Mókaliget is home to dozens of bird species. Information boards with QR codes have been installed to help you learn about them. After scanning the code, detailed information about the birds can be found on the website of the Magyar Madártani és Természetvédelmi Egyesület (Hungarian Ornithological and Nature Conservation Society).
