The Living Rainforest

A trip not so far away to a place called The Living Rainforest at Hampstead Norreys, just north of Newbury.



An Emerald Tree Boa



A pitcher plant (this is a carnivorous plant)



One of two toucans at the Living Rainforest, both rescued from the pet trade and having suffered malnutrition before their arrival have badly cracked beaks that will never improve :(



This curious critter was an Agouti



Spot the red-crested touraco...



Some gorgeous plants that I just loved the colouring of, it really was this vivid.



And these flowers as they were a heady mix of magenta, red and orange.



And a chinese water dragon.

There were lots more beautiful plants and animals there but my phone camera is just not up to the job of taking pictures, especially if something is moving.

Here's where I make you think I'm really clever and tell you that it's a male water dragon :)

OK I cheated, Toby is a water dragon and obviously a male and he looks just the same
