| Welcome to Featherdale |
A
visit to Australia wouldn’t be complete without kangaroos and koalas.
I’ve never seen any of these two animals up close, so I was actually
quite excited.
Featherdale Wildlife Park happens to be located very near Rooty Hill, so we decided to give it a visit.

The
park is of course more geared towards children, but we still enjoyed our
time there. We were even given “passports” to stamp once we get to
certain sections of the park.
We saw a lot of animals, but the highlight was when we got to interact with a koala named
Macy. There were a lot of koalas around but since koalas are nocturnal, Macy was the only one of the bunch who was actually awake. Her fur was so soft and she so shy. She was quite hungry too, munching those leaves away.

Aside from Macy, tiny kangaroos (and wallabies) were freely roaming around the park as well,
interacting with the children and the children-at-heart.
The
visit was a wonderful experience, and I could finally say I’ve seen a
kangaroo up close, as well as patted a koala’s backside. They’re
absolutely adorable, by the way.
