Caversham Wildlife Park Part One
When Laura and I came to Australia the last time, almost worth the entire price of the ticket to me was coming to Caversham Wildlife Park. We loved it there and of course I wanted to go back again.
Kookaburra, maybe not as fun as finding the one in the wild like I did the other day, but this way I got a lot closer.

Then we came upon one of my favorite sections of the park, where you can go in and touch, pet, and feed the kangaroos.
Walking around, I came across this adorable sleeping one, it stole my heart!
It seemed a little annoyed with me, but soon it woke up. 🙂
He was even cuter awake.
And hungry, so he followed me to the food bin.
Last time I was too chicken to feed them, this time I decided to be brave.
Last time we also missed out on the Wombat, this time we got to sit with one and touch its leg. They are bigger than I thought they would be, although we were told this one was average sized or even below.
Having seen and photographed a larger one of these in the wild, it was fun to touch a small Carpet Python.
Not sure there were as many kangaroos as the last time, but enough to enjoy!
John pointed out a Kangaroo with a Joey. 🙂

So much to see and do at Caversham Wildlife Park. More to come next blog.
