9th Jan – Copenhagen Zoo has record visitors in 2013
9th Jan – Copenhagen Zoo has record visitors in 2013
2013 was a great year for the zoo in Copenhagen. They had a whopping 1.432.000 through the gates, a 30% rise on 2012.
2013 saw the opening of The Arctic Ring. The new housing for the polar bears. The illustration today is the tower in the grounds of the Zoologisk Have and of course a polar bear…although I have been informed by my son that the food I have supplied is all wrong…when he went they had just been given a horse’s head!
7th Jan – Be careful what you wish for!
7th Jan – Be careful what you wish for!
The theatre company REPUBLIQUE made a new year wish for wine corks….they had offered 2 tickets to anyone that sent 35 wine corks or more. The first day for delivery was yesterday.
The corks are to be used on the stage for their new production ‘La Veritá’ in Tivoli.
They needed 3000 wine corks….they have now been offered 100,000 and ask that people please stop sending and delivering.
I can only hope that my new year wishes are as fruitful!!
5th Jan – Please don’t feed the swans
5th Jan – Please don’t feed the swans
Københavns Kommune have asked that we think twice before feeding the swans at the lakes.
I’m a city girl…and grew up feeding park wildlife as a means of entertainment….and hands up I’ve enjoyed feeding the birds at the lakes in Copenhagen with my son, but there are good reasons to stop this.
1. We’re not just feeding the birds, but some much less savoury rodent neighbours.
2. The swans and ducks even in the iciest conditions are as capable, as they are beautiful, and don’t need our handouts.
3. We’re making our lakes less habitable for the healthy plant life that should be feeding our city birds….and turning the lakes green and slimy.
