We got a flyer a few weeks ago telling us about a special night at the zoo for members. I was a bit excited to see that it was after the zoo closed - so hopefully the weather would cooperate and we could enjoy some pleasant weather. The outing was both a success and a disaster. Disaster being the end when my children ran away from me - and laughed about it the whole time. Needless to say, it was good that we were done seeing the animals - because we went STRAIGHT home! I actually brought my camera this time and got some pretty good picture of a few of the animals. Melanie wanted to photograph the giraffes (they were inside this time... it was threatening to rain).
The picture in the center is of one of the Red Pandas. The occasion was supposed to welcome Oscar - the new red panda to the zoo.... not really sure if we saw him or not.... I guess the picture is of Yen (the female red panda up in her usual perch).
Melanie loves to check out the snakes every time we go to the zoo (not really sure why) so we had to have one in our collage. The goats photographed are the ones who I'm sure learned very early in their stay at the RITZ (read ZOO) that they would definitely get hand fed for the rest of their lives! The Rhino was in an AWESOME spot (and not sleeping amazingly.... and neither were the hogs for that matter)!
