(Admin)Savannahjan Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 Wow, what a great petting area, I would like to get my hands on some of those critters. You always do such a nice job with ZT2 projects. It really looks great, good luck with the contest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firehawke Posted April 21, 2016 Author Share Posted April 21, 2016 Thanks, Jan! I've started working on a new non-contest zoo. Bit slow going right now, thanks in part to a carpal tunnel episode...had to order a different brace because the one that just came ended up being too snug.

Firehawke Posted May 5, 2016 Author Share Posted May 5, 2016 As we were drawing up the plans, we were approached with a request...could we find space for the Southern Carmine Beeeters and the Kenyan Crested Guineafowl??? The answer was, "YES!"We asked some landscaping/gardening enthusiasts to create a little waterspot for our guests to admire...they did a great job!

Spixie Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 Looks impressive, but don't you think the fence you used in the outhdoor exhibit is too low ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firehawke Posted May 16, 2016 Author Share Posted May 16, 2016 Thanks! If I was going for realistic, yup, it would be. But, I'm not huge on making sure everything is realistic, especially in this particular zoo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firehawke Posted May 19, 2016 Author Share Posted May 19, 2016 It's a new month at Feral, so there's a new theme. This time it's birds! So, I have tons of new pics...contest entry and the new additions to the SOC zoo for badges! First up, the contest. Miss Aderyn has lived a life of adventure. She has travelled all over the world, has learned countless things, and seen many marvels. But, time has caught up with her, as it will with us all. Now, she is no longer able to travel, but she has put her resources and knowledge to work. She has built a relaxing little bird garden, which she has opened up to school trips! But, you are not part of a school group. You have been personally invited by Miss Aderyn for a special VIB (Very Important Bird) tour!So, welcome to Miss Aderyn's Bird Garden!There are three paths to take...lets go to the left.By taking this route, the first area you see is the tropical rainforest, featuring the Scarlet Macaw and the Indo-Chinese Peafowl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firehawke Posted May 19, 2016 Author Share Posted May 19, 2016 Next, you will come across the Savannah area, featuring the Southern Ostrich and the Blue Throated MacawContinuing around in this circle, next we see the desert area, featuring a couple of smaller species, the Greater Roadrunner and the African Penguin (1 of 3 species of penguins in the garden. Miss Aderyn has a friend whose little boy is partial to penguins) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
