    Because I was in the area, it was a lovely day, and it was a new zoo for me, number three is:

    3. Battersea Park Children's Zoo 28/03/2017

    Nice little place, your usual children's zoo collection (ring-tailed lemurs, tamarins, maras, coatis, ASCOs etc), but an unexpected highlight was a pair of Pallas's Squirrel, Callosciurus erythraeus. I don't usually have much luck with squirrels, but this made my second new species of squirrel within a week :D

    That's the 7 easiest gone, all of which I go to at least annually. It will get more interesting for me now!

    After a very long drive from Amble on Friday I can now add another which is

    7) Camperdown Wildlife Centre

    Before anyone asks no I am not doing Edinburgh, unless they get rid of the black and white things that just sleep!

    After a little drive out on Sunday I can now add another 1 for the challenge in the form of

    8) Suffolk Wildlife Park

    That should be it for this month and more than likely next month
