I visited the Canberra Zoo with some of my family to celebrate my great nephew’s 3rd birthday. It was a beautiful day and everyone had a great time, especially the three year old. I was able to see several familiar Australian animals but a good selection of foreigners as well! Above is a snow leopard and below are the lions we could hear roaring from all over the park.

The wallabies and fairy penguins were cute as always.

The fur of the dingoes was surprisingly soft and a beautiful colour

 .

The giraffe was the favourite of the birthday boy and one of the animals we were able to see up really close.

There is also a reptile area and aquarium.
