I had the fortunate opportunity to meet some residents at Colchester Zoo to get into the Christmas Spirit!
It was a pleasure to meet Ronnie - one of Colchester Zoo's reindeer, and a close friend of Rudolph! I also got to meet Malibu and and Boomerang, two of the zoo's many wonderful penguins.
As well as being a popular attraction for people across the UK, Colchester Zoo's charity, Action for the Wild, assists conservation projects worldwide.
