National Aviary Pittsburgh, Allegheny County
America's premier zoo dedicated exclusively to birds, the National Aviary is home to more than 600 birds representing 200 species, many of them threatened or endangered in the wild. Be prepared for some amazing encounters with our feathered friends!
Large walk-through exhibits allow for close interactions between visitors and free-flying birds. Daily programs are educational and fun and offer many opportunities to hand-feed and meet species rarely found in zoos. Visitors can watch flamingos frolic; witness massive owls spread their wings; offer nectar treats to a flock of rainbow lorikeets; and talk with a pair of colorful toucans.

Brandywine Zoo Wilmington, Delaware
The Brandywine Zoo is just across the state line in Wilmington Delaware, so we decided it was close enough to PA to be listed! The Zoo grounds cover 13 landscaped acres on high ground above the Brandywine River. The Zoo hosts 150 animals, from tigers to snakes, and is open all year round. Open 7 days a week from 10 to 4PM with family programs scheduled throughout the year. For example, "Pint Sized Planteers" for kiddos 18 months to 6 years, where kids learn about colors AND animals, all at the same time!

Lake Tobias Wildlife Park Halifax, Dauphin County
Looking for adventure at its wildest, try the Safari Tour (you won't believe how close you come to the animals.) Something tamer? Try the Petting Zoo. The Reptile Building offers various snakes, reptiles and tropical birds. There is truly something for everyone. And you cannot beat the price $4 for ALL AGES 3 years and up. Seriously. The park is open May through September 10AM to 7PM.
