    This fella is NEVER out - always sleeping on a pile of his mates deep under the shelf of rock. Except today...it's ALIVE! The African porcupine:

    I've never had the patience to wait for a full show, but I did stop once to snap a quick picture.

    OK, so maybe not THE most attractive bird in the world...

    Hey, there's stuff on the back side of the tree, too.

    I hope there aren't any big bad wolves around. Rumor has it that twigs don't hold up well against lupine threats.

    I didn't realize they had built big nests there before - yours was from 2017! When I was there this past March just before closure, they had built a giant nest right around the same spot.

    Here's one out wandering around looking for more sticks:

    Right after I took this photo, a cast member gave me the "no photography" sign. But I swear the announcement said "no flash photography" and I always follow the @Tim rule.

    Looking at some recent photos, it appears that many of the rooftop decorations (such as this one on the Discovery Trading Company) have been removed. The birds in the center are still there, but the fish and birds on the peaks are gone.

    There's a long line for the restrooms. And it's going the wrong way!

    What are the chances that between all of us, we have photos of every animal on the tree? If we do, we need to create a photo directory showing what and where. (Sounds like a lot of work, though.)
