The Zoo

Weather improved enough to go outdoors so we went to the Zoo again. Almost a year since the last visit so it was still good fun. We've avoided putting any local animals in as the blog has featured them several times already. Chloe was off doing a scrapbooking course so missed out.

Painted Dogs

This tree produces large, reddish-purple flowers and wooden, sausage-shaped fruits, which can weigh up to 4kg. The tree has been introduced and is not native to Australia. Many people have unwittingly parked under one of these trees and cursed the fool who brought them in to the country!
