Adelaide Zoo 2013-04-26

Went to the Adelaide Zoo today, perfect morning for it too.  Haven't been there and had a proper wander around and look for a very long time.  Was also the first time I have seen the two Pandas, Wang Wang (the male) and Funi (the female).  The work that the Adelaide Zoo have done to the whole zoo is quite exceptional.  Although exibits like the polar bear, the panther, the elephant are no longer there (have moved to other zoos) from days when I was a kid, it was still a enjoyable day.

 
This picture of an otter, I didn't take today, but back in 1985. One of my favourite animals.
