Early in the morning, D23 (the official Disney fan club) and Imagineer Jason Grandt revealed a new marquee featuring the Orange Bird, as well as a new line of Orange Bird merchandise. Furthermore, it was announced that the Citrus Swirl was officially being added back to the menu (it had previously become available for purchase on March 1, 2012<ref> http://progresscityusa.com/2012/03/01/a-ray-of-sunshine/ </ref>), and that the original Orange Bird figure that once sat atop the Sunshine Tree would be returning <ref> http://www.wdwradio.com/2012/09/disney-imagineer-jason-grandt-interview-show-291-september-9-2012/ </ref>.

On March 12, 2015 the Sunshine Tree Terrace and [[Aloha Isle]] switched locations in Adventureland. Following the switch, the Sunshine Tree Terrace can now be found across from the [[Swiss Family Treehouse]]. The relocated Sunshine Tree Terrace kept its menu (as did Aloha Isle), however new signage was created for both of the restaurants <ref> http://www.disneyfoodblog.com/2015/03/12/news-aloha-isle-and-sunshine-tree-terrace-switch-places-in-disney-worlds-magic-kingdom/ </ref>. In June 2015 the Sunshine Tree Terrace received a new sign which now features the Orange Bird <ref> https://twitter.com/imagineeringdis/status/606286418906734592 </ref>.
