We'd went to the Zoo on Sunday afternoon, we arrived there at 5:30pm and left at 7:00 pm. Because we'd nothing to do, and we didn't visit the Penguins on our last visit, so we went to the Penguin house and butterfly house this visit.
Great Mormom
Paper Kite
Paper Kite
This one was flying and very close to me.
Gentoo Pengiuns
King Pengiuns
Swimming Gentoo Pengiun
It saw me taking picture for it, so it keep staying in front of my camera in the pool.
Rockhoppers
Puffins
Puffin and Visitors
You can see how close visitors and those penguins are in this zoo.
Of course there's a staff watching visitors in the Penguin room, there always has some kids trying to touch those penguins and being warned by the staff.

Thanks!
That's the other side of the pool
.
I forgot to take a picture of the whole room so you gangs can see how the visitors can get closer to the animals.
Most of the animals don't have a Gate, like they can just jump out but a big gap there they can't jump over.

Gorgeous butterflies. Wish we had enough Nature around to still see dozens of butterflies everywhere!
