I love dolphins too Terry - and sea lions and penguins (and if Ting Tong is reading this no I don't mean the bloody biscuits you moron!)
My parents used to have peacocks - we had a tower on our house too and seeing the peacock fly up to the top of it never failed to impress me, especially the sound of their wings whooshing past.
We had one especially tame one called Pat who used to walk into the house and perch on things to admire himself in the mirror (males huh?!) The only way you could get him out again was with halved chocolate biscuits (cookies) placed every three feet. If you tried to give him thirds or quarters he would just look at you disdainfully and back up and if you placed them too far apart he would wait until you moved them closer - he was a real character!
We had one family friend who was very nervous of him and every time he'd visit Pat would be waiting for him and he would squawk just as the poor man was trying to reverse his car so he'd stall it - after seventten attempts one day and my laughing like a drain my mother clipped me around the ear and sent me for the chocolate biscuits!
Of course Pat being Pat used to ALWAYS leave his calling card on the mans car as well I loved that bloody bird!

Okay Gore I liked you when we chatted last night, now I dislike you as much as I dislike Charlotte! (Guiseppi is getting VERY jealous of everyone else getting grandkids and I don't git none yet!!!  ) She is absolutely precious....the future son in law looks like he may be a keeper. You're a blessed man!

Great pictures!
Everytime someone just mentions the word 'zoo' or 'dolphin', you bet I'm there! I love visiting zoos and I love dolphins a lot.
