03.11 Yarra Valley: Healesville Santuary

A day trip into the Yarra Valley, first took us to Healesville Santuary, where you can see a number of the native animals.

Parrot watching the show!Parrot in flight!The 'Parrot in Flight' Show. Birds fly over and through the crowd!

Great use of Galahs!Interesting use of Galahs (litter picking), since the introduction of the birds they have reduce staff numbers by three! I think they should train a few more Galahs and send them to Canberra!!

Fruit Bats!Cute KoalaSome of the local residents!

Doing it Koala-Style!!Love this sign, particularly bottom-right - Koala-style!

Can't go anywhere without one of these!They have free gas barbeques in the picnic areas, so this time we were fully prepared!!
