点评:Found the winter lights evening disappointing unfortunately. It was difficult to see the birds in their enclosures in the ‘lit up’ walk to the arena - fully appreciate they should NOT have a bright light or torch in their faces for our benefit but unusual to be advertised as an evening to be able to see them along a lit up trail then not particularly be able to see anything. I am perhaps in the minority as seen lots of lovely reviews (which is what made us so excited to visit), but particularly disappointed by the show. In a 45 minute show, it felt like 40 minutes of voice recording on habitats and diet etc. and 5 minutes of owls. Again, you cannot and should not control an animal into performing, but the evening we attended the barn owl did not want to play ball (bless them) so we missed a whole display. I can’t express enough how much I don’t expect animals to perform for me (as an animal volunteer myself), but to advertise and put on a show to expect to be immersed in these beautiful creatures, I was just sadly disappointed to see so few. Please also let’s normalise not having to walk through the gift shop as both the entrance and exit without being offered an alternative with young children.
翻译:很遗憾,我对冬季灯光秀之夜感到失望。在通往表演场的“灯光步道”上,很难看清笼子里的鸟儿——我完全理解为了方便游客观赏,不应该用强光或手电筒照着它们,但既然宣传的是可以沿着灯光步道观赏鸟儿,结果却什么也看不到,这实在令人费解。也许我是少数派,因为之前看到很多好评(这也是我们如此兴奋的原因),但我对这场表演尤其失望。45分钟的表演,感觉40分钟都是关于栖息地、饮食等方面的录音,只有5分钟是猫头鹰的表演。当然,你不能也不应该强迫动物表演,但我们去的那天晚上,仓鸮不配合(真是可怜),所以我们错过了一整场表演。我本人也是一名动物志愿者,所以我非常清楚自己并不期待动物为我表演,但既然宣传的是可以近距离接触这些美丽的生物,结果看到的却寥寥无几,实在令人失望。另外,请大家也让带小孩的家庭不必非得穿过礼品店才能进出,并且应该提供其他选择。
