A sunny day and so we decided that it was time to visit the Adelaide Zoo. Having not been to the zoo for over 20 years it would be intersting to see how many things had changed, as the closest zoo we have been to was the Birdlife Park we went to in Singapore.

A Mara
grazing.

The entrance with the exit turn stile on the left.	Our Aussie icons, the koala having a walk.	Shall I eat or sleep ?.	Meerkats. I could watch them for hours.
Posing for a photo session.	The Meerkat Manor. If I was just a bit taller....	Laughing Kookaburra. We hear thes e in the wild at home.	Caged up. I don't think it was laughing somehow.
American Beavers.	He preferred the twig to all the carrots.	Syrian Brown Bear.	This was a big bear. Glad he was on the other side.
This Leopard is waiting for it's lunch.		Feeding time for the lions. There is a pecking order.	Happily feeding away on some meat and bones.	Matschie's Tree Kangaroo.
Walking from point A to point B.
Yellow Footed Rock Wallaby.	The mother and joey with it's head poking out.	A crocodile with coins on it's back.	Bongo - African Antelope.
A big beast.
Gai under a grape vine trellis.	Mother and baby hippo.	Mara - a relation to the guinea pig.td>
Indian Antelope.
The horns on this male creature are stunning.	The female - plain.
There is a huge walk in aviary.	This bird was only visiting.
Parrots were making a racket.	The bird ground dwellers.	The umbrella was not needed.	These birds preferred the steel frames to the trees.
This Otter was having a good look around.
The Dwarf Mongoose.	These are beautiful creatures.	The White Cheeked Gibbon.	He was happy just sitting on this limb.
Malayan Tapir.	Just lying around taking it easy.	Clive looking over at the crocidile.	This zebra had no friends.
This wombat was camera shy.
