Baby Cassowary - there were two. I had no idea these guys were even there, it's not like Caversham was advertising this at all. And they were in a completely accessible area, I mean 'reach down and touch them' area, although you wouldn't, you know, because they look at you like 'GET NEAR ME AND I'LL SOMEWHAT KILL YOU.'
Australian Raven - I was probably more fascinated by the Australian ravens hanging around the outside of the enclosures than I was the actual animals in the enclosures sometimes.
Aawwwwwrrrrhrhhhhhhhhhh
Some Kind of Bettong - I want to say Burrowing Bettong, but I was kind of dissociating heavily this morning, and I don't actually remember, my photographic memory for these things disappeared and I was left with a normal human ability to remember animal names. Fail.
They make sounds like starting motorbikes. Seriously.
Mother of two joeys waking up. So cute!
Bush Stone Curlew - for some reason, I always think these guys kind of look like they're just starting to come down from meth or something, and they're at that stage where their really seriously contemplating sticking a knife in your face and going 'GIVE ME YOUR MONEY, FOO!' You know, he's really thinking about it.
Leetle Crocodile
Some Kind of Goat - Argh, they had a name on the sign, seriously, sigh. I thought of![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
bewylderbeast when I saw all the goats. :)
Hairy-Nosed Wombat - Maybe. Of course with my dissociation, this could just be an extremely snub-nosed pig or something. No, I'm pretty sure it's a wombat.
Indian Peacock - Starting to grow in his breeding plumage. Nom.

Date: 2010-04-16 01:45 pm (UTC)I'm familiar with your Stone Bush-Curlew from zoological collections, but also because of the related Eurasian Stone Curlew. They always remind me of vintage movie stars with their enormous eyes (and somewhat stoned expression).
And a wombat! I like wombats. Amazing creatures. I'll refrain from making yum yum noises about the goat because I know there are people who love them as pets, but...
