Bindi Irwin's Wedding

It's been a depressing few weeks, so every bit of happy news is a plus - and that's not just limited to penguins wandering empty aquariums.  Yesterday, Bindi Irwin, the daughter of Australia Zoo's late director Steve Irwin, "The Crocodile Hunter," married her new husband, Chandler Powell. 

It probably wasn't quite the wedding Ms. Irwin envisioned - there were almost no guests, in keeping with Australia's ban on large gatherings in order to reduce the spread of the virus.  Well, not many human guests, anyway... the wedding was, of course, held at the zoo.  Considering that the bride was named after her father's favorite crocodile, what else would you expect?

Bindi, along with her younger brother, Robert, has followed in her father's footsteps, not only in leading the famous Queensland Zoo, but in serving as an important voice for wildlife conservation and advocacy for unloved animals.  Hoping that she had a happy wedding day, and that the world slowly returns to normal, for her, her family, and, well, all of us.
