There has been a lot of excitement here at Living Coasts. The keepers have been talking about new animals arriving. I am a little worried about where we are going to put them as I have heard there will be lions, tigers, rhinoceros and baboons just to name a few! I shall investigate.
It’s May again and as I’m sure you know, its Macaroni breeding season. This is always an important time of year, but this year even more so.
Over the last few years our adult Macaroni’s have been breeding very well. Our first two hatched were Waddle in May 2005 and the following year his little brother Babe.
A few months ago I told you how some of my friends had yellow bracelets on their flippers…well they are starting to appear again. The keepers have been catching up some more of my friends putting yellow bracelets on which must mean some more are moving soon.
Over the last few days the keepers have been catching some of us. I wonder why?
The keepers have been catching a few of us African penguins and putting them in the hut on the beach for a few minutes. When they come back out they are wearing new yellow bracelets!READ MORE
It's been snowing on Penguin Beach here at Living Coasts. Not masses of snow, but a little, and definitely enough to provide us with hours of fun!
We have been following the news with interest, and the weather reports with excitement, but there isn't enough snow for our liking! I suppose the climate of Torquay does not lend itself to having much snow.
