Granja Los Faisanes Bird Farm

We visited a bird farm today and met some wonderful people, Laura and Javier, who run the operation. They have a very large compound with too many birds to mention. It was quite an experience to see so many birds of various sizes, colours, and rarity. I learned today that peacocks are part of the pheasant family. Laura and Javier are encyclopedias of information and their knowledge should be documented. Javier literally travels the world to physically capture various species for his collection, from Borneo to Tibet. They sell and ship around the world to various universities, zoos and bird collectors.
