November 27: Local Wildlife























We started this morning with breakfast at our local cafe, The Pigeon Hole, before taking a drive out to the Museum of Old and New Art.  For some reason MONA is closed on Tuesdays (?!) so we took a drive out into the country and stopped off at a wildlife park called ZooDoo.  It was only a small park but allowed you to get up close to loads of wildlife.  Daisy & Nick fed some of the camels and emus (counting our fingers afterwards) and then watched one of the keepers feeding the devils which helped explain how they got their name.  Its easy to imagine how the first settlers were terrified when they heard them growling at night - even though they are only as big as a cat!  We won't be bringing one home as a pet.
