Sydney Zoo
March 13th, 2006
Yesterday we took a trip on the ferry over to Taronga Zoo on the Northern side of the harbour. I was in MONKEYSMONKEYSMONKEYSMONKEYSMONKEYS mode, but managed to keep my cool with some sedatives and soft words from Han who was brandishing a straight jacket. Unfortunately the monkeys weren’t upto any tricks and were quite happy to sit in a tree and mock me.
Stupid monkeys.
We saw the bird show though, and that was really cool. I’ve never seen one so just assumed some dude would come out with a knackered looking old owl and show us its knackered old beak or something, but these birds were really well trained and could pluck coins out of people’s hands, undo knots and pilot rocket ships. I was impressed!
Here’s a giraffe with the Opera House in the background – a photo I never thought I’d take:
This is a koala in a tree. He didn’t move for the 3+ hours we were there:
Two monkeys grooming each other. Yay monkeys:
A mating pair of pretty birdies:

I was using Han’s – it’s gone now though so you’ll have to make do with the crude line drawings I’m doing in purple crayon.
