It may not be Halloween just yet, but Disney World is beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

This year the holidays will be kicking off in the parks as early as November 4th and we’ve already started to see some new decorations appear in anticipation. Earlier this month, Disney’s Hollywood Studios’ holiday makeover began and now we’re spotting the first decorations in another park!
On our way into Disney’s Animal Kingdom today, we looked up over Island Mercantile and noticed that images of wintry animals were lining the rooftop over the entrance!

These can be spotted on all of the small shops at the front of the park and feature animals like owls…

…reindeer…

…foxes and birds…

…and even squirrels!

Then we were on the lookout for more holiday decorations and were able to spot a few more owls positioned on the peaks of roofs…

…and birds already high up on light poles.

We always enjoy seeing how Disney’s Animal Kingdom gets decked out for the holidays, so it was exciting to see some new decorations arrive so soon. The park will also be home to the returning Merry Menagerie (aka adorable holiday puppets), seasonal flotillas, and even the Tree of Life will light up to the tune of holiday-inspired music as “a series of wintry tales emerge from within” nightly.

Of course, we’ll continue to keep an eye out for more holiday decorations as they pop up around Disney World, so be sure to stay tuned to AllEars for the latest!
