Do you go there often eric?

[ErikPaterson]

@scottishreptile Aye, once or perhaps twice a year - not that often in the big scheme of things.

I've been there too. Absolutly amazing! Loved it. I really enjoyed the handling area. Leaf-cutter ants were cool. Loads of large butterflies and free flying birds. If you like going to things like this i would reccommend that you see "Rainbow Landings" at Edinburgh Zoo, free flying Rainbow Lories that land on you. You can by little tubs of nectar and they come and drink it.

@DannysDoos Never been to the 'Rainbow Landings' place at Edinburgh Zoo, but, cool, if it;s anything like Amazonia iyt;s probably prettuy cool!
