I go with the animals I like more, then, I chose the ones that fit better to the zoo location ;)

ZC, yes, I think it's a good combination! :) New great exhibits coming...

A not to big one, maybe a barn owl. But if your going for a flying bird, I would add some poles, so they have something to land on. Instead of just the ground.

I already used those, but I think you are right, owls are best for this exhibit.What do you think about short-eared owl?I will add poles.

aviary doesn't look large enough for that species. if you still want an owl i'd say Little Owl, otherwise i'd go with the Hoopoe.

There'll be no foot-walking! Just air-flying!

Are there any members from Denver here ? I'm planning a zoo there and I want to get the foliage and biome exactly right, but also, more importantly, the whole feel. Typical architecture, etc.

lots of ferns and similar foliage they can use for shelter from light, and also for privacy.

Well kiwis are nocturnal creatures. I would say an small closed aviary with a nocturnal house style to be realistic but i hate closed exhibits xD
