The Key West Butterfly and Nature Conservatory located at 1316 Duval Street which is about six blocks from my home is a butterfly park that houses from 50 to 60 different species of live butterflies from around the world in a climate-controlled, glass-enclosed habitat. The conservatory includes flowering plants, cascading waterfalls and trees. There are also several species of free flying "butterfly friendly" birds, such as red-factor canaries, zebra finches, cordon-blue finches and "button" or Chinese painted quail. And there are a couple of cranky flamingos ready to give you their opinion on the world.
