Isola Madre

After Isola Bella, I took the ferry to Isola Madre. The gardens there are much more naturalistic than the Isola Bella gardens. One thing they are famous for is their wisteria.

The island was also infested with random art when I was there, including a large promenade of metal dogs.

There were also lots of birds on the island roaming the gardens. Peacocks of course, both regular and white peacocks.

There were a few aviaries in the center of the island, with parakeets, budgies, lovebirds, pheasants, and more.

The birds were pretty charming to encounter in the gardens.
