At the Zoo



My husband and I decided this morning that we would take a trip to the zoo (our first in probably more than 15 years). We "thought" that because school was in session and all that it would be leisurely (wrong), there were children and their parents everywhere (and these were school aged children).......we wondered why they weren't in school instead of at the zoo.
Let me add that I took just shy of 700 photos in about 2.5 hours - LOL.
As always, you can click on any photo to look at it enlarged.



This bird's picture was taken through fencing if it looks blurry but I loved the odd color of it's feathers being turquoise.


This bird was scarry looking, it sat in a corner and looked almost like a odd owl.

Crow Came To Visit



This crow came to visit and stayed, and stayed, and stayed, moving from one tree and one branch to another, not making a sound but watching me vigilantly.
