More Zoo Photos

I told you that I had more!! :-)

As mentioned before, We took my neice E to the zoo with us....she just turned 12 this week...can you tell?


Such a beautiful girl


This Zebra was just hanging out


Spoonbill...they're just so cool!!


And the kids got to feed the Giraffes...this is my favorite photo...hahaha!
I think had Duke actually licked Alex, both of their expressions would be quite different! LOL


Ok, more photos of the giraffes...better photos than the one above :-) LOL




This is Duke. He's the Daddy giraffe to the little guy born a year or so ago...






A resting giraffe


And as promised, better photos of the kids feeding Duke

Some other gorgeous animals we encountered




I rarely get to see these wolves when we're at the zoo...they're always sleeping in the shadows.
Today, they were out enjoying the sunshine, and I was able to get this shot...I got others of the laying down wolf alone, but I love the bit of interaction here.
On a side note, I think the wolf laying down is blind. I got a shot of him/her looking at me, and both eyes are frosty and glassy looking. Makes me less sad that they're in the zoo.






Lemurs












Some friends from the Reptile Houses










A couple more shots of the kids...




I thought this series of photos was just amazing!!
What do you think?

Time for a snack??
