Healesville Sanctuary- more animals 更多動物

July 1st 2010, Thursday, sunny

So after playing a bit with the alpacas, we then headed to Healesville Sanctuary. As we arrived, there was a show - Birds of Prey, about to start. So we did that first, then moved on to other animals.
I was trying to take photos of a Tasmanian Devil that ran around and around in his territory, but didn't succeed. It was running to fast as if it was going crazy. (I'd be crazy if I were it, being kept in a small area like that....)

In there we saw some kangaroos and wallabies. The way they move themselves is interesting. They actually use their huge tails to help move the whole body. It's hard to imagine how fast when they hop when seeing them moving slowly...

Also we were lucky to see an Echidna, an active one, I mean, it was moving, though slowly as well...
Better than the wombat we saw there, it was sleeping....
(Echidna 針鼴蝟)

Emus are one of the animals that I think they are usually angry. Just the facial expression of theirs, especially the poped- out eyes...  Even when G grabbed some grass to feed them, they still looked unhappy....
(Yet do you know? Pure Emu oil has been shown to be helpful in moisturizing the skin, reducing the discomfort from sunburn and radiation burns, soften the appearence of aging associated with wrinkles and scaring and reducing pain and inflammation associated with Arthritis or injury...)
<I haven't used Pure Emu Oil myself, yet I've been using Emu oil cream and I quiet like it ^^>

Oh, back to the animals~~
We also saw several differnt kinds of birds....
(Gang-gang Cockatoo 風頭鸚鵡)
(Brolga / Australia Crane 鶴)
(They only have 1 partnet in their life time!!!)

The "flying fox" (fruit bats) are colourful and they hang in the trees upside down!!!

Of course there were some koalas! To some degree, I have to say that they do look cute sometimes, especially when they are sleeping... There was one koala sleeping when we were taking photos, suddenly it just woke up and turned its face to us, with its eyes OPEN!!! Then after about one or two minutes, it went back to sleep again. That was it! NO more face, just bum~~~~

(haha~ can only take photos of the bum...)



2010年 七月一號  天氣晴

和羊駝玩耍一番之後
我們終於來到了Healesville動物護育區
買好票之後,售票員說有一場"猛禽的表演"快要開始了~
所以我們就先去看猛禽掠食囉~~

表演結束後我們去看其他動物
有一隻塔斯馬尼亞惡魔
一直繞圈圈跑
害我一張相也沒照成功
牠跑的模樣感覺像是"快要發瘋了"~~
(要我被"安頓"在那樣的活動範圍裡
應該也差不多會瘋掉吧~~
又不能跑走  當然只能一直繞圈圈跑......)

當然也有看到袋鼠和沙袋鼠wallaby(體型較小)
袋鼠們移動的方式很有趣
巨大的尾巴可是一大助力呢
看它們移動緩慢的樣子
實在很難想像它們跳的速度之快....

幸運地我們還看到一隻移動中的針鼴蝟(Echidna)
不像牠隔壁的"王八"(wombat)在睡大頭覺....

鴯鶓(Emu)大概是我見過最愛生氣的了~
可能是它們的臉部表情吧~
尤其是他們那對凸凸的眼睛
就算G好心拿草餵它們 還是看起來不開心....
(可是告訴你喔~ 純鴯鶓油可是用途多多呢---
滋潤保濕皮膚, 減緩曬傷症狀, 淡化皺紋疤痕,
舒緩關節痠痛或運動引起的不適....)
<公主我是沒用過純鴯鶓油啦~
但我有在用鴯鶓油乳霜,感覺很不錯,我個人還蠻愛用的 ^^>

啊~ 小離題...
回到動物們~~
我們還看到了各式各樣的鳥類
有一個倒吊在樹上的蝙蝠我覺得超有趣

無尾熊也是必看的
憑良心講,它們有時確實是還蠻可愛的
尤其是睡覺的樣子
有一隻原本在睡覺
突然之間醒來
緩緩轉過牠的臉 剛好面對著我們
當然是趕快拍下牠睡眼惺忪的愛睏像
一兩分鐘後 牠又埋頭睡覺去了~~~~
就這樣
後來的人只能拍屁股啦~~
沒有正臉相對的無尾熊囉~~~~
