The birds offer a great deal of entertainment and some are quite affectionate. This site is our tribute to the owners of the bird park who have created a wonderful environment for the birds who without doubt simply enjoy the attention of the public. If you visit, expect a close encounter of the bird kind!

Take a look at the layout of Desford Tropical Birdland and a map to help you get there.

Urgent - Stolen Parrots

A Lesser Sulphur-crested Cockatoo (Jojo on the left) and two Moluccan Cockatoos (Lucy and Petra) were stolen from the bird park on or around Monday 13th October 2003. Jojo is very sweet and easily identifiable as she talks with a very sweet voice. Her favourite saying is "hello baby", The raid on the bird park was a despicable act, the individuals concerned probably have no idea or necessarily care about the trauma they inflicted on the birds that night. Neither will they understand the misery they've caused to both staff and regular park visitors. All these birds enjoyed an ideal lifestyle at Desford, a lifestyle that could not be matched anywhere else. They had freeedom to roam, plenty of other birds to play with, food on tap and regular visitors to whom they gave uncompromising love and affection. If you have any information that could lead to the return of these beautiful birds to their rightful home then do not hesitate, please contact Desford Bird Park directly with that information. Ring Telephone number: +44 (0)145582 4603 or email Richard Hopper (Curator)
