A visit from the Magical Willow Park Zoo

This is Care of Magical Creatures week at Harry Potter Camp, so they had a visit from Jeannie the human and some animals from Willow Park Zoo. 

We met a Skink named...well he didn't have a name so they just called him Skink, but we think  he should be called Harry...

A 13 year old screech owl named Houdini because she likes to break free of her leg strings and fly away from her handlers,


A California King Snake named Pig. Wonder how he got that name? Apparently he tends to eat a lot.




A purple headed, green blooded, Slytherin beastie. This creature is amazing, and is by far my most favorite. 


And a great horned owl named Ashley. Ashley has an amputated wing. She was found severely injured,  probably from flying into a power line, and they had to amputate the wing to save her life. She now gets to entertain school children.


Do you have any magical creatures at your house?
