Two cotton-top tamarin entertained during lunch (sorry about some pictures being on their side) there was also a koala, but it just snoozed, seems koalas sleep up to 20 hours a day. They live on ecucaliptis leaves which is the equivalant of a human living on iceburg lettuce, so always lethargic. I had a cold beer and feel like snoozing too. Cairns Tropical Zoo is a treasure, the free flight bird show was so riveting I didn't even attempt to take pictures. I am going to hang out until the end of the day to watch it again. Next is a program on marsupials and then the crocodile action. This will keep me awake. Their reptile exhibit was enough to make me reconsider hiking. But so many beautiful bird's!
