Taronga Park Zoo

Last Tuesday we woke to a luke warm drizzly sky, so decided that we would go to Taronga Zoo for a look, except for company dinners at their Restaurant facilities in the 1980's - I haven't been to this zoo to check out the animals since I was a kid many decades ago.

The animal exhibits have wonderful views of Sydney and its Harbour

Sure footed African sheep climb high for their view of the Harbour Bridge

This Kookaburra just above was not part of the bird show, he was there hoping to grab some of the meat treats from the bird handlers.

But the "Kooka" moved ever so quickly when he saw the South American Condor come into land - otherwise he may have been this huge Condor's meat treat!

The Asian Elephants with two young males, and on the same morning we were there a young female was born - so the Taronga Elephant people are very excited.
