The wonderful post over on the San Diego Blog talks about the wonderful day that Gao Gao had to celebrate his un-birthday. He enjoyed a wonderful ice cake packed with his favourite fruit and covered in honey, and of course there was plenty of bamboo for him to eat.

I think that the keepers and visitors enjoyed the day even more than Goa Goa watching him get stuck in with the cake.

It was also my birthday and I want to thank all of you that sent well wishes to me. It made me feel good and that spured me on to continue with the reporting as you seem to enjoy what I write.
