Autumn Wonderment

October Loving

Little things I'm loving at the moment...

The October rain...

New yellow umbrellas...

Little friends who aren't quite ready to quite the summer party...

These two...

The changing of the leaves...

Finding beauty in the remnants of summer...

These red berries...

The apples weighing down the tree...

The many apples under the tree...

And this little one eating all the apples...

And lastly the darker evenings...

So I can wrap up in a blanket and feel cosy in front of the TV.

Dudley Zoo

I LOVE safari parks and zoos because I can get up close to animals, take their photos and whisper how much I love them through the bars. I DON'T LOVE the small spaces and how bored/sad they sometimes look. Dudley Zoo has it's good and bad parts but every time we go they are improving, renovating and increasing the space which is something. I used to teach the two children who's parents run the zoo. Their back garden is literally this zoo. No wonder they were such great kids!

Anyhoo here's my favourite bits...

The castle on top of the hill. 

The tiger which I think is actually my favourite animal. Every time I see one I'm in totally in love...

Hello my baby....

Super friendly penguins...

The fact that everything a meerkat does is both cute and hilarious at the same time...

Oh don't look at me like that, you know exactly what I'm talking about...

This Mama watching her baby play...

Its the same love isn't it? 

Also two minutes later she had the same I need a frigging rest look us Mamas get too...

Yes yes you know the one...

Ostriches who dance like no one is watching... 

Lemurs and monkeys everywhere...

Speaking of Monkeys...

How much my own little monkeys love the Zoo...
