Hello guys !!!!!! Remember that in a post I showed you the view from our room during a thunderstorm? I had also promised you a photo with the nice weather and here it is, the perfect start of a perfect day!
We'll go to visit Seaworld ! We were waiting for this weather, we were staying in this area only for this park and we were not disappointed! And yet this is just the entrance!
After a while we bought tickets and it starts a fantastic adventure ... wonderful view!
Flamingos, giant tortoises and manta immediately catapults us into the world of these wonderful creatures that will surprise you even through their colors and the great harmony with they move themselves ...
Rare and unique experience, to caress the small mantas, they came spontaneously, they are really soft and tender, even if you have not familiar with these or with aquatic animals in general,
do not take long to get used to it, however, after, you can safely wash your hands in the space provided.
The dolphin pool is great, but we would come back later to do a little more .....
And here we are at the first show of the day with the dolphins, of various breeds, that will leave you breathless.
The trainers not are great and if you would not expect that things, it will happen, it was a small story told with complicity of men, women, aquatic animals and not, music and colors!
Ahahahahhaahha, to review photos of this show with the seals and sea lion made me laughing so much, starting with a funny mime who mocked all those who came up, to the actors-trainers and the fun animals, exchanging jokes with actors, the audience really involved and the children all ecstatic, even by a small animal that ran across the stage, as you see in the picture above, I was able to photograph it when it fled away, in part also the protagonist of the story ..
Sweeter and huge sea lions, what really impressed me was the beautiful relationship that had people and animals ..
Here it is the pool of sharks, mostly small, of many types and colors.
The Dragon Marine, a creature of exceptional beauty, it moves in the water with great harmony, I stayed enchanted to watch him, it has these characteristics protuberances shaped leaf to disguise in the marvelous marine flora that surround it.
From the same family of seahorses and pipefish, home waters in the south and east of 'Australia, can reach 35 cm and the male is responsible for the pregnancy.
Infact it has a spongy part under the tail where the pink eggs are lay by the female. After 4-6 weeks of incubation, after hatching, the puppies are released into the sea.
Typically eats small crustaceans or fleas of sea, it is unknown if it is the prey of other animals, but unfortunately it falls prey to people who have the ugly habit of taking them as pets, this has led to a reduction in the number of specimens, so that the species was officially declared as protected by the Government of Australia 'in 1990.
The reduction of 'habitat and pollution have contributed to the' extinction alarm for this wonder!
Passing through the tunnel under the water and look around you will be amazed .. some of these inhabitants of the sea it is also a little bit scary ...
Terrestrial animals, really cute and colorful, I wanted to caress all of them!
Here we are back to the dolphin pool, where, buying the appropriate food (small fish) you can go to feed these beautiful animals, a 'huge thrill for me, stroking a bit of a fish and the other, I had never been so close to a dolphin, you do not miss this' experience .. among other
these animals are very cute and funny!
Going to the spectacle of Orcas!! He left me ecstatic too, great jumps, a relationship of affection by killer whales, especially I noticed one of the last and her trainer, so sweet with each other since the area behind the show, I see this girl chat with the 'orca and be with her sitting on the edge until going on stage .. together.
Water splashing and fun, but mindful of Australia we have not take one of the first positions, not to get wet, even because our day would have been still long .. Indeed, the first positions was a little sketched by the killer whales that made some jokes: D
Some other little friend ..
What a cute seals!!
Mostly sleeping, splashed here and there, or swam upside down looking curious the observers ..
This above was getting a great sleep, her very clear but there were different colors, darker, black, spotted and brown for example.
Awakened by a smaller, even of age, who probably wanted some milk, even if I'm not completely sure that she was the mother, they started fighting and I am a bit sorry for the dark has gone all sad, although it reacted to the other seal.
Puffins are very funny animals, you will encounter in a building where the climate is much colder suitable for these animals as well as the penguins we will meet later.
Then, a bit of news about them: the full name is Fretercula Arctica, but are also known as Puffins. They have a very colorful-billed parrot, the body is completely adapted to aquatic life. Not only use the wings to swim in water but also to fly.
The plumage is alternate from black to white for example around the eyes and chest and its length can vary between 26 and 30 cm.
This cute animal spends the winter on the high seas, but with the first sun moves toward the coast to reproduce. During this period, only the beak becomes very bright colors, red, yellow, blue-gray, but the silver is present on the sides.
During the 'winter, instead, fading.
The male and female may stay together also for years.
A bit of photos, why do not penguins in a cockpit?
And here our penguin friends, fun and some really big! I thought they were fake!
We also wanted to play this game, but the row was too long and we were tired at the end of our the day; We also wanted to play this game, but the row was too long and we were tired at the end of our the day; it went down on a kind of boat from that hole you see and get down into a river full of water. So a walk into the store and let's go on!
Could miss the crocodiles?!?! I know, we do not see them very well, but I promise that in another post there will be many more! Curious?!
The Manatee! Or Lamantini, belong to the family Trichechidae, wonderful marine herbivorous mammals, measuring up to 4 meters and weigh up to 600 kg. They showed signs of great intelligence, long-term memory and learning ability similar to those of dolphins. Unfortunately, humans often undermines their livelihood by destroying the 'habitat and, consequently, their food sources.
But even objects found at sea, manatee accidentally ingest some of these do not cause major damage but more often causing the death of the animal.
They are at risk of extinction too.
They are very tender!
You can see them both from outside both under the area where they are. The same be worth for dolphins, about them the only thing that I don't showed you, I guess, is the Nursery, it is wonderful and I recommend you to go to see it, but for photos I should have moved near the poll and is not allowed, to not disturb mothers and puppies ..
I hope this wonderful journey into the world of animals enjoyed you, I promise that I will post more often, unfortunately, recently for the university exams I couldn't; for all informations you require, please send questions on comments or on my e-mail, I will be happy to answer you !!
