Bird shelter Utrecht and petting zoo are in each others

But the old and dilapidated building needs to be replaced, according to the Bird Shelter. They are dependent on the owner for maintenance: the municipality of Utrecht. It would have done too little for a long time. A new building could be built at the same location, but the Bird Shelter would prefer to move a bit. “We now have a bit of a strange place, in the middle of the park,” explains Jaap van Dijk, the chairman of the Bird Shelter. β€œIt’s quite narrow and deep, so we’re always in the way.”
