Warm, sunny weather has made the lagoon’s splash pad and playground an attractive proposition for children but, just metres away, the few birds that brave the murky duck pond carve a path through algae-infested waters.

"Since I have been here, I have found a new best friend so will need to be adopted Kanan. He is quite shy, and will need an experienced family. This is what my foster family said about me. "Sophie was shy and hid a lot when she first came home with me. I put some food by her hiding spot and a little trail towards me and she came out and was affectionate. Until she feels safe she will hide. Sophie still - 3 months later - hides when other people come to the house, but is brave and affectionate with me. Sophie isn't really interested in toys and prefers to sleep in the sun or hang out with me. She will either snuggle into my leg on the sofa or on my lap. When she wants attention she will pat me with her paw. In the evening I would cradle her like a baby and sing to her and rub her belly, she loved it." I would do best with someone around for parts of the day, and will need to be indoors for some time until I feel safe."

It is a very different spectacle to what you saw in Spring when the gardens were full of massed tulips.
The sunflowers on the slope are just starting to bloom, the perennial border is in full swing and work on the subtropical jungle extension has begun.
In light of the recent covid news we ask that everyone brings their own pen to sign in the covid tracing book please. There are plenty of garden rooms to spread out in so keeping a distance should not pose a problem.
Entry is by donation. Thank you.
