2012-06 Australia - Jenna and Blair
Which one of these is not like the others? We're touring the zoo, following the zookeeper for the nightly feeding. The emus had been hand raised and acted like dogs. Inquisitive and pesky, they followed us everywhere.
Kookaburra with his nightly meal, an already dead baby chick which he repeatedly slammed against the pole to ensure it was really, really really dead.
We then left Port Douglas to stay in the nearby Daintree Rainforest. We stayed in a B&B, Daintree Wild Bed and Breakfast, which was also a zoo. This is Teddy, who quickly became Steve's bestest buddy. He would escape from his cage just to join Steve whenever he was near.
One of the three Cassowarys at the zoo. Large middle toe that can be lethal to anyone or anything that comes near. These are not nice guys!

Snack time. All the kangaroos and emus show up for the morning hand out of chunks of bread.
A fantastic trip. Australia, we shall return and in the meantime, no worries, Mate!
