One of the most popular activities and highlights at the Alice Springs Desert Park is in the amphitheatre, known as the Nature Theatre – Free Flying Birds Show. Having visited and watched the show many times, it is something we never get tired of. Check out some of our teams images of the free-flying birds of prey in the Nature Theatre, collected over the many years we have been going to the desert park.
