I've
missed my Zoo visits very much. Work got in the way of Life, I suppose.
I took advantage of a lovely day off today to make a trip there.
Oooops, I forgot that it is Spring Break. There were tons of people
and activity everywhere. It was great fun, as always.

First stop
was the area where the Red-Ruffed Lemurs sometimes hang out. This
one played peek-a-boo with me from behind a fallen tree. |
|
His pal looked
as if he was rolling his eyes and muttering "Oh, really!"
He was not at all impressed. |
|
All winter
the path near the gorillas has been roped off and today I saw
why. A marvellous new area has been constructed for the gorillas,
along with a great viewing area for the public.
I watched
this group for ages as they scrounged for food and played.

I could almost
imagine a conversation going on between these two.
"Aww,
c'mon. Share!"
"Nope.
You're old enough to find your own, so skedaddle!"
|
|
And off the
smaller one went to find his own meal. |
|
This giraffe
just would NOT turn around so I could get a face shot. I thought
this was kind of an interesting angle though. |
|
I tried to
get a picture of the hippo grunting loudly to his pal on the shore
but he closed his mouth every time I got the camera focussed. |
