“Cutest little zoo”
Such a lovely day! Started with assisting Ed with his Alpaca enclosure and got to give a lovely camel a good old scratch, then on to the birds and an owl landed on my arm - 3 times!!! Then met a giant tortoise and her house mates! Then off to reptiles and held a snake and met a lovely old lizard who likes to be cuddled! Then the monkeys and tapirs! Everyone was SOOOO welcoming and just LOVELY! Highly recommend!!
