Steve and I visited Werribee Open Range Zoo today. 
Gave me a chance to play with my new camera!
Leopard tortoise
Blue Fairywren - wildlife not zoolife
Meerkat on sentry duty
Pile of snoozing meerkats
Catching some Zzz's with their bub on sentry
Herd of Blackbuck Antelope
Przewalski's horse
Dromedary camel
White rhinocerous with its little birdy mate
A trio of zebras
A few of the seven male giraffes at the zoo, they run a bachelor herd for the boys who won't be needed for baby making anytime soon
A kudu exploring its new open range enclosure, he and his two mates were quite flighty but will enjoy the space i'm sure
A breeding pair of scimitar horned oryx, they had their bub just out of frame
Amy the baby dromedary camel
Feeding time for baby sparrow (more wildlife)
African Wild Dog's settling in the shade in the heat of the day
Sparrow on a post in the bandicoot enclosure, figured that while the bandicoots were hidden away (we didn't see them) i might as well take photos of something
Willy Wagtail in the shade
Wattlebird, still in the bandicoot enclosure
Sleepy emu
Emu resting
Another nap for the meerkats
Lots of fun! It's nice to see animals in mixed, open-range enclosures. The savannah exhibit with giraffe, antelope, zebra and rhinos was particularly enormous!

I'm kinda addicted to watching "Meerkat Manor" on TV. Amazing though how vicious those pint size cuties can be towards each other and especially towards 'rival gangs' 
) and it was nice to see that it is still going and still developing. Great food at the cafe for those locals thinking of making a trip!!
