In a small
pond near the hippo pool was a flock of fuzzy little Mallard Ducklings.
They were
adorable!
One of the
elephants kept hopping from foot to foot, as if she was doing
a strange kind of a dance.
I had to chuckle,
watching her. It reminded me of someone I know, dancing. :D
Three Lion-tailed
Macaques were out today! It was great to see them as they've been
pretty reclusive all winter.
I love their
faces - they look so world-weary, sometimes.
As for the
orangutans, they were pretty scarce today. Some were napping high
up in their hammocks and those who were outside had covered themselves
with their favorite pieces of burlap.
It's very strange
to go to the Tiger grotto and see no babies frolicking. Father Tiger
paced around and roared during his time in the public view.
He went inside
and Mother Tiger ventured out, very daintily.
Here's Dad
again, roaring for his lunch.
The original
little Arctic Fox now has a companion, but I've never seen them
together. They sit miles apart and stare in opposite directions.
