We flew back home to Adelaide for a few days to see our parents – my parents had not yet seen Andres except on Skype video calls.
We spent one of the days with my parents at Monarto Zoo – one of my favourite zoos.

It was late in the day and so the light may have been affecting the colour – I’m not sure it really was that deep.
Love the shot of the hyena pup.
The Adelaide Rosella is interesting. Normally they are a washed out orange on the front but this one seems deeper red than normal, closer to the nominate species, the Crimson Rosella.
The Adelaide Rosella is a hybrid sub species of the Crimson and there are many colour variations throughout the Adelaide and mid north regions.
The panoramas worked out beautifully, didn’t they?
