Singapore - Zoo

Singapore has an aquarium, zoo and night zoo.  We've seen many underwater sights whilst snorkling and never could get photos, so was good to get a snapshot of some things we'd see at the aqaurium

The coral is always very busy with fish


These were very popular around south Malaysia

And these around Lombok and Gili Islands, Indonesia

Only ones I know due to Finding Nemo.  They always hide in the coral and peek out

Strange upside mushroom style

Getting 40 winks?

Psychedellic

Furthest we'd been, this is Sentosa Island, Singapore, practically on the equator

The mahouts and elephants had a fantastic relationship and could work together to even turn around on the log and walk back the way it came!

The show started as soon as we'd entered the zoo, so we ran to get it

It was quite comical with some slapstick humour and they celebrated National Day, the next day

They danced too

Another white tiger, not doing very much

The otters were very cute and came over to anyone new, hoping for food, squeaking at you

The orangutans could go on the trees over the paths through a network of ropes and bridges

And came down on the paths with the zoo keepers, a couple of times per day

Didn't seem to like everyone looking at it

I had to put on 'sports mode' as a camera setting to capture this rapid mover

Behind glass, thankfully

No way you'd see this in leaves - eek

Very beautiful but constantly felt like I was looking at a 3d picture


Tough mother and also very stupid - obviously a few like that in Manchester after seeing rioting on news
