Hiroki's Birthday 2006

Hiroki turns 21!

I visited Hiroki on October 9th and wished him a happy birthday.

Hiroki, I present you with a lot of sweet potatoes on this wall paper.
Be carefull not to eat too much.

You had lunch this day!
I don't know if they gave you bamboo grass as your birthday present, though.
I wonder if you liked it since you seemed to enjoy it?

Wish Hiroki a happy 21st!
around 11:50

Morning exercise just a bit
around 9:45
　

　
Walked up and down the ramp

　
What shall I do next?

Wire Tunnel?
9:50 -

What he did after he finished his short exercise was......

I wonder if he'll enter the tunnel?

Entered!

　

He went forward very slowly and stopped at the center of the tunnel.
He was eating native grass there through the wire netting for about ten minutes.

After that....
　　

He didn't go ahead and go through it, but stepped backward to the 'entrance' carefully.
　

Full view of this tunnel

Turning over before lunch

around 10:30

　

Yawned more than ten times keeping this posture
　

　
　

It's time to sleep

You are so good at turning over, aren't you?

Took a nap for a while
10:50-11:40

Lunch Time
around 11:40

The keeper entered his pen with bamboo grass in her hand.
Hiroki was sleeping then.

The keeper put a part of the bamboo grass at his side, and he soon woke up.

He ate it lying on his stomach at first, however....
　

　He soon got up and got serious about eating it,
and he had eaten most of the bamboo grass in no time.
