16.01.2022 IN FLANDERS FIELDS In Flanders fields the poppies blow Between the crosses, row on row, That mark our place: and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, fly... Scarce heard amid the guns below. We are the Dead. Short days ago We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, Loved and were loved, and now we lie In Flanders fields. Take up our quarrel with the foe: To you from failing hands we throw The torch; be yours to hold it high. If ye break faith with us who die We shall not sleep, though poppies grow In Flanders fields. John McCrae (18721918)

16.01.2022 Rockhampton Zoo's mischievous meerkats are nearly ready to meet you! The curious bunch are settling in at Rockhampton Zoo and should be ready for public viewing in December. The mob is made up of four females and includes a mother, an adult daughter, as well as two pups. The mother’s name is Aya and she is 5 and a half years old, the eldest daughter is Sabari, who is 15 months, and the two pups - Keeya and Mahlia - are both three and a half months. The exhibit, which is loca...ted near the chimp enclosure and the dome aviary, has been carefully constructed to replicate their desert habitat by giving them lots of nooks and crannies to tunnel in, and high sentry posts like termite mounds. We can't wait to see them! Tag your friends below so they can plan a visit
