Visiting the Hunter Valley Zoo on the weekend I spotted a baby crawling along like a little Road Runner with little legs pushing him at twenty to the dozen so I quickly took a couple of shots then asked a Zoo Keeper who he belonged to. He was the son of the Manageress so I asked her permission to use the shots plus others I'd taken which I will send on to them. I left his face grubby as he'd been playing in the dirt. Have a great day! ~Pat and ~Graham
