Destination : Melbourne - Day 10

Another great day ahead. Nice sunny day, with temperatures at a cool 14 degrees.
I'm hitting yet another Zoo today. Healesville Wildlife sanctuary. Its about an hour and a half's drive from Clayton.

Made it in time for the 'Birds of prey' presentation. It was really awesome. You'd be surprised that they are not as birdbrained as you'd think they might be.
