The Birds and the Bees exhibit, where you can feed the budgies up close and personal, is the runaway hit of the summer at the Zoo. The exhibit ends on Labor Day, so get on out and feed some birds while they're still in town. Morning is best, when they haven't been eating all day, but anytime you can get there to see the jewel-toned birds sitting on the dowel right in front of your face (maybe even in your hands or your lap) is worth the price of admission.
Park Friends is the only non-profit group in Memphis dedicated to providing a community voice to all our public parks. We are a Midtown-based group that focus our volunteer efforts on Overton Park, the grand old park of the Memphis, but speak out on park issues facing the entire community. I'm the current Park Friends president, but this blog contains my personal thoughts about the park and park issues across Memphis. Any opinions given are my own and not board ratified positions.
Visit the Park Friends website at parkfriends.net for more information about the group.
