Zoo trip was achieved. Feet are sore. I walked there and most the way back. ๐คจ
I went on a mini African safari by seeking out all the African animals. Except the gorillas, I feel too ashamed to look at gorilla people that are effectively sentient caged slaves.
The baboons did their baboon stuff, lazing on warm rocks in the sun, grooming, wanking, teasing each other, shoving their bum against the glass windows to give spectators an intimate view. The little bastards would run off laughing.
Lemurs are actually marsupilamis . I always knew this and seeing their hanging nests confirmed it.
Giraffes were sweet. The lions were sleeping in the sun. They have cute tufts of fur under their arms.
Bin chickens, native to Northern Victoria, have taken residence en masse in the crowns of tall palm trees, making messes, skwarking and shredding the vegetation.
Sounds like a splendid day.
Hope the sun came out for you all day. By afternoon it was clear skies and the sun was out.
Was there a lot of people at the zoo?
glorious day, few people
