Today I saw heaps of Australian creatures. The Koalas immediately warmed my heart. Being surrounded by Koalas has been a highlight in Sydney so far. I respect that they sleep 20 hours a day.

| I also got to feed some Tree Kangaroos! |
 |
| This is an Australian Pelican. |
 |
| Some full grown possums. Notice the tails... |
 |
| Platypus! It was very difficult to take a picture of this little guy. It was dark and no flash was allowed. He kept squirming and swimming around! He was much smaller than I thought a platypus would be and extremely quick. It was very fun to watch these guys swim around in their habitat. |
 |
| Check out these Greater Bilby's! They were HUGE!!! |
 |
| This was my tour guide's favorite animal because she actually found him in the street and raised him at her home for a few months. He is a Squirrel Glider, and his coat is one of the softest things I have ever touched. His name is Ferg. Ferg the Squirrel Glider. He has a membrane that stretches from his arms to his feet that enables him to glide. |

| Only in NZ or Australia would you get tea time after a tour. I chose water instead of tea because it was way too hot for tea. Everyone else managed to drink hot tea in the heat. Great day at the zoo! |
