no idea what this one is ... but what glorious colours you have captured
It looks very much Like a Southern Lapwing to me as the bill is red with a black tip, also the eye has a red ring and cast to it.
The southern Lapwing is common through out south america.
Have a look at this link Here
You mentioned a wildlife park, was this in the UK ?
I have a photograph of the Northern Lapwing in my portfolio so you can compare the difference.
Great to see the different variations in colour, there are approx 24 different types of Lapwings lol a right head nipper
It's definitely a lapwing of some sort, the detail and colours in the plumage are superb
