Over on her own channel, Bindi, 22, shared a series of photos of the entire Irwin clan celebrating the occasion by releasing some turtles back into the wild off the coast of Queensland. 

In one photo, she was seen cradling her baby Grace Warrior, who turns four months this week. 

‘Celebrating my beautiful mama’s birthday by releasing five sea turtles back to the wild, after they were in care at our Australia Zoo Wildlife Hospital,’ Bindi wrote on Instagram.

She added: ‘This day will live in my heart forever, with the most amazing Mama turned Bunny (our term for grandmother). I love you beyond description, Mum.’

Back in February, Bindi revealed that her mother Terri will go by the name of Bunny to her daughter instead of grandmother. 

‘We spent a long time searching for grandma names that also had an animal link,’ Bindi told The Bump of Terri’s alternative nickname.

‘We decided that she’s going to be called “Bunny”. When she was growing up in Oregon her neighbour down the street was always called “Bunny”,’ Bindi said.
