Arriving at Whipsnade Zoo shortly before the 10am opening time, the rain was already falling and the heavy dark skies were promising more to follow.
After paying the entrance fee we made our way along the footpath towards what was the birds favoured feeding area yesterday, the Hullabazoo Farm. We were still walking towards this area when the bird was spotted perched in a berry ladened tree just outside the Pig-Pen. It soon flew into the fenced area and began foraging among the logs and branches on the ground. Unfortunately, it didn't stay long and flew off towards the distant tree line. As the rain, became heavier we took shelter under the roof of the play centre. The skies began to clear and the bird was soon re-located.

The remainder of the day was spent wandering along the footpaths viewing the various animals. It was a very blustery day and dad's Baseball cap took a trip into the moat of the Squirrel Monkey enclosure! much to our amusement.
