Sunday Selection -- Zoo Edition

Once again - almost two years to the date - we were back at the Zoo.
We saw many of the same animals and some new ones. The tropical places, housing bats, spiders  giant butterflies and tiny birds were finally opened for the public once again.
The baby elephants had grown, but were still visibly smaller than their parents.

Not many more words, just photos - warning, snakes, spiders, bats and bugs will be in the pictures.




Sculpture ...

... and live model.

Can you see it?

Here is a wooden replica - a Red panda.


No, there's not 2 of them. One is a moult.



Can you see the animals?

Here's one more.


Not underwater, only semi-dark.


Almost all transparent!



A play-statue, there were more wooden animals of different kinds in the Zoo.

It was dark in here!


An old enclosure, now a playground. Be brave, CLIMB UP! is writen in the wall. The sand-coloured ground is a giant safe fall mat.

Young, new, very active, bull Rhino.
He was put in his own enclosure every day at noon, to give the rhino cows some time off.

  2. That's a beautiful zoo! The bat house was always my favorite at our zoo, and we really enjoyed the reptile house as well. Maybe i need to "kidnap" little Lee and go again as soon as the weather gets cool enough.

    1. Someone t 'kidnap' and enjoy the zoo with sounds real good. I'm happy ti hear that the bat house has more friends out there.

  3. Beautiful photos! All I saw in that big picture was one green frog. I haven't been to my zoo for a long while. It's too expensive now.

    1. There are several frogs in there, but they are kind of hard to spot. The zoo is very expoensive here too, that's why we only visit once every two years.

  4. These are just beautiful. I LOVE zoos! What a clever thing to do: make an old enclosure into a play place!

    1. Yes, clever. It's as far as I remember an old bear enclosure.
