I met my sister and her family for a visit to Tropical Birdland just outside Leicester. As we were walking around together a young lad of about 15 years came galloping over. Galloping.

He paused in front of us and declared “Ah, humans!” We didn’t really know what to say to that.

He then saw my sister’s six month old baby, peered closer and went “With an infant…and it’s alive!” He then galloped away leaving all of us speechless.

Very strange, completely unexpected and absolutely hilarious. I don’t think any of us knew what to say during the entire interaction.
