I’ve made going to the zoo a regular activity. Through the week, it’s a good distance to walk from my apartment\u2014not too far, not too near. And there are lots of places to rest if I need to.<\/p>\n

I finally got a decent shot of the leopard in his outdoor enclosure.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Here is the cool little police car. I want one.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

These are evil fish (all fish are evil) in the African area.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And here’s the pygmy hippo with more evil fish. The next shot shows you how evil these fish are.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Look at these things! First they have these big lips – and they all stare at you as you walk by. How creepy is that? It was also kinda weird as to how many fish were in this exhibit – they seemed really crammed together. These things gave me the willies. Blech.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Here’s a little closer shot of the tiger. I’ve named it Waffle. I have no idea what its “real” name is, but to me, he’s Waffle.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

A snake. I don’t remember what kind. There was a group of kids on a field trip in the reptile house, so I really didn’t get a chance to read the signs. I just snapped a shot here and there when I found an open spot.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

An ostrich. He seemed rather bored. There’s supposed to be a giraffe in with him, but I didn’t see it. I’ll get a shot of it sooner or later.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Meerkats. There was one below that was tunneling and popping in and out. They’re kinda funny animals. Again, too many kids around to spend time taking pics.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

With this being the middle of May, I’ve run into a lot of field trip groups on my walk to and through the zoo, so I haven’t taken too many pictures. iPhone is getting restless, but we’ll get out and about and get more shots of cool things. Like garbage cans.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
