Southwick Zoo

It was Patriots day. It was a nice day. It was a sunny day. I got to wear a t-shirt. But not skirts or shorts. I wore a monkey t-shirt. So did Jasmine. My family went to the Southwick zoo.

First I fed the dear corn. My dad fed a deer that was brown. Then the deer fell in love with my dad. It wouldn’t stop following my dad. It was chewing on my dads backpack. It kissed my dad on the legs. Finally the deer went away.

Then I saw a bad naughty monkey. It stared at us, and then showed us its peepee. It copied us. It stuck its tongue out. When it walks, the tail sticks straight up. It walked on all four legs. It uses its tail to help it climb.

When we were heading home, I saw a kangaroo woke up from its nap in the shade. It was jumping; it jumped on its tippy toes. It has long back legs. Its front legs aren’t moving. Its tail balanced when it jumps. The kangaroo can sit on its tail with its legs on the ground. It is the most energetic one. The other kangaroos were just digging or napping.

When we were just about to go through the gate, we saw the zookeeper. She was putting a scarlet macaw in a go-cart. She said its name was Vicky. It could say “hello”, and “good morning”. It said “hello” in a clear voice. Vicky liked to dance. It nodded its head when it danced.

Jasmine and I were tired. We went home. I ad fun, the animals were cute and funny.
