People / by Dave Hileman

What goes a long way toward making your visit to Disney good is the people who work here. I was in the bird house on the Asian walk and talked at length to Stephanie (binoculars) whose job it is to count all 303 birds twice each day to see if they are happy and healthy. She determines that by the “bird things” they do. The oldest bird in the house is 23 years old. They live longer here than in the wild. The other young woman asked about my camera and I asked about a specific bird and have no idea how the conversation went - there was a third person engaged - but before I left I learned her X grandfather was on the original Philadelphia Eagles team.
