My husband & my two younger sons went for a drive to SeaWorld on the Gold Coast today & we spent quite a lot of time watching the Polar Bears playing in their enclosure. They were having a ball. I just had to share some of the many photos that we took, they're priceless!
I think the polar bears names were Hudson & Kanook
Aren't they cute ... kissing polar bears!
Just having a little swim
Still kissing...only a little more vigorously!
oh these are amazing pics...love the polar bears. make me think of big teddy bears but i bet their hug would not quite be as fun.
ReplyDeleteThey are beautiful animals Brian... we watched them play for ages! Yep..as cute & cuddly as they look they are a huge & powerful animal
ReplyDeleteKatherine I've always been amazed at just how big those Polar Bears get. Where my grandparents live in Alabama there is plenty of wilderness and I remember seeing a bear once....a little too up close and I almost filled my shorts with Hershey squirts!!!
ReplyDeleteNow I live in South Carolina on the southeastern coast of the United States and we have our fair share of alligators, just like I know that those of you in Austrailia have your share of crocodiles. When any of these beasts see us, they see dinner. I would hate to end up dinner for any of them.....that's got to be an awful experience.
Wow, what great shots! Looks like fun, I can't wait to get to the zoo with my little guys.
ReplyDeleteI love polar bears too. I once spent two hours watching the polar bears at the Central Park Zoo play "ball" with their lunch pail.
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures!

ReplyDeleteReggie ~ Hershey squirts in your shorts doesn't sound very nice at all! I laughed when I read that!
ReplyDeleteWhere I live, there are no crocodiles but we do have sharks in our ocean. And I definitely wouldn't want to come in close vicinity with them either. Hope you have a nice relaxing Sunday...cheers Kath
It was fun CopMama. It was also fun watching the awe in the faces of the small children that were watching around us. A great thing to do with the children..I'm sure your little fellas will love it too!
ReplyDeleteThey are mesmerizing to watch PattiKen ~ we were probably watching them for about an hour ourselves.. I would have kept watching but it was closing time & we had to leave. Thanks for stopping by ...have a nice day!
ReplyDeleteLove your polar bear shots Katherine - they're all great. My favourite - for amusement value - is the 3rd one. Does life for a polar bear get any better than this ?
ReplyDeleteThanks Rick ... yeh he looks super chillaxed doesn't he.
