Thank you! It's inspired by visits to places like Rome, Barcelona and Lisbon and by pictures of Jerez although I have never been there.
Here is the flamingo enclosure. The flamingos are all named after Spanish Eurovision singers
What did you do in Planet Zoo today?

I decorated around my Fossa habitat which I still forgot to photograph and show. Did I even show my Okapi habitat? And the Porcupine meerkat habitat? I am confused.
Wow, your Giraffe Enclosure looks absolutely perfect. Definitely want to see more from this Zoo
What I did today was finally sort out my slow-maturing reptiles from my fast-breeding birds (in Franchise mode) and I felt quite accomplished because my zoos were all sorted out with the exception of a very few animals who needed enclosures built before they could leave the Trade Depot storage. Then my tropical bird zoo was struck by a heat wave, which I had never observed before, and I came here looking for information about heat waves. I found out that my table of temperatures for biomes was out of date and now I have to sort my 19 zoos. Again. They do get better each time I rearrange them, But. I. Just. Finished. laughing maniacally
The first major animal area (canada themed of course) of the zoo begins with a prairie themed area with prairie dogs and american bison, these are very large habitats greatly exceeding habitat requirements with the prairie dogs in a 700m2 habitat while the bison enjoy a spacious 7500m2 habitat split in half with an overhead path. Buffalo grass has been placed... one too many times, but realism calls right?
Boars almost done!
Lets just say, im cooking something special
Jesus, I never expected someone to talk about Eurovision here
I'm a HUGE fan of this contest (guilty pleasure), for real. My life revolves around 3 passions: animals (and therefore Planet Zoo), science (I work in the research field) and Eurovision. And I never thought about giving artists names to the animals in my zoos :') I prefer to call them after friends' names I’m a huge fan, I watch as many national finals and associated events as possible - this week I had holidays so I could watch SanremoJesus, I never expected someone to talk about Eurovision here
and play Planet Zoo 
. I have even been to a few contests in person.I actually once named my emus Kate, Miller, Heidke, Guy and Sebastian
By the way, a while back I made this suggestion:
Eurovision pack
I present the Eurovision animal pack! Featuring your favourite animals from some of Eurovision’s most successful countries, all of which had a top five placing in the last five contests! Switzerland - “Tout l'univers” has been waiting for the Alpine ibex. Russia - “Thunder and lightning...
Well well well, looks different now, doesnt it?
Today i finally added the first aviary to my zoo in the cold asia section, just above the wild boars.
Its currently used as a living space for one very unhappy binturong, but maybe you guys can guess for who it actually was intended.
The habitat features a lovely mash view, which just is the price we pay, being just as irritating to look through as irl.
The holding facility also features a large vivarium for fire salamanders, ideally even more native amphibeans, as part of the amphibean breeding programs across europe.
Also got a shot of my zoo from above and i gotta say especally after not playing in a while it feels so massive and gigantic.
I know it pales in comparison to many other zoos, but cant lie im very very proud of it.
And with 34 habitats and 5 exhibits across 47 different species it also starts coming close to the diversity of an actual zoo.
Took me 3 years so far and propaply atleast 2 more to finish it, but its just so nice to watch it grow more and more
Today I startet a new zoo. The artic zoo is placed in the Tundra of Europe. The first animal : North American Beaver 
Of cours, most of the animals, will be could animals, but I also plan on building a lion house and an antelope house. But I will show you, when they are done. What do think about this beaver habitat ?

Finally finished the Fennec habitat, did some finishing touches on the Fossa habitat and the Okapi habitat (Okapi habitat not in the pics) and started a Gorilla habitat.
Obviously not all today but in the last couple of days, but yeah, work on Unity is still in full force.

Some sightlines are now visible as I build some of the streets that surround Edinburgh Zoo.
