at the Chengdu Panda Base to observe
behaviors of Pandas at night.
We did this before
(which I could not update in my blog
because it was too dark and the pictures
were terrible...)
Pambassador Ali Shakorian took great pictures tonight,
so all the pictures on this post is from
Ali.Thanks Ali!!
幸浜 at around 8:30pm.
He was sleeping in his favorite spot when
we arrived.
But then, he recognized our torch light,
and came over. Someone said "Apples" in
Chinese, so I think he came over to get
apples...Sorry 幸浜...
Wow, he came really close!!
He is staring at the camera lense,
leaning on the wall of his outdoor enclosure.
Last time we did the night tour,
幸浜 was eating bamboo when we arrived,
but tonight he was asleep and I think
we interrupted his sleep. He started
eating bamboo near his platform.
Pandas eat a lot at night,
and during our night tour, we saw
other Pandas eating bamboo on their
platform, and this is quite normal.
Some young cubs are being fed with Panda Cakes
at around 7pm. We were able to see
other Pandas too (even the babies!!),
so I will upload
more pictures when they are ready.
