ZOO.

[kaberett]

This time ZSL Whipsnade. Highlights, quickly, before I forget any more of them:

• WOOLLY PIGS
  
• we still didn't see any pygmy hippos, but these information boards used the verb "trundle" to describe their locomotion on land and I was delighted
  
• Grevy's zebra have white bellies!!! (see also wikipedia)
  
• baby flamingoes are grey they don't! know how! to be pink yet!
  
• the penguin enclosure is particularly amazing (astonishing views) AND the two types of penguin are DIFFERENTLY SHIT and it is GREAT. (Rockhoppers use their beaks to pull themselves up the banks, and also flop into the water face first. The Black-footed penguins instead sort of... wabble.)
  
• excellent free-range wallabies & Chinese water deer
  
• very much enjoyed the ridiculous pelicans also

(Adam who else was especially good?)
