We couldn't let #WorldSlothDay pass without mentioning our very own Linne's Two-toed #Sloth, Tambopata. Pictured here blissfully fast asleep in the canopy of the Tropical House (📷 Stephen Cole). Thanks also to visitor Alina for her image of him looking straight at the camera.

Meet Peggy, Pat and Phil: our very own Albert Square residents. Our #Penguin Keepers are great @bbceastenders fans, so much so that they've named this year's three Penguin chicks after some of the soap's most iconic characters. @BBCOne #Eastenders @InsideSoapMag #penguinchicks

With a lovely, warm start to autumn, along with the arrival of some much-needed rain, our summer displays are still looking spectacular, with the #gardens awash with stunning colour.

I went out with me cornflake box and colander held steady,
I couldn’t buy the glasses, they had all sold out already,
I gathered my equipment and I pointed it to heaven,
Never saw a thing, I’ll wait till 2027.
