zoology
I went to the zoo yesterday...
with Peggy
We saw the white tigers (who proudly posed for us)...
and the monkeys picking fleas off each other (ew)...
and the rhinos (one of my personal favourites)...
and the camels...
and the jaguars (I honestly can't tell the difference between them and the cheetahs and the leopards)...
and the pelicans...
and the manatees (I was astonished by it's sheer size)...
and the flamingos (one of which was red)...
and the squirrels...
and the tortises...
we found 3 of them sitting on the branch like this...so cute! Reminded us of Singaporeans queuing up for Hello Kitty or something...
The goats were super friendly...this one tried to kiss me...
I love this one. It looks like a racoon but it's brown. I can't remember it's name...but I want one!!!
The parrots were gorgeous (this one patiently waited till I finished taking a shot of it before it flew off)...
This is some sort of monkey...
I have pictures of the polar bears, lion seals, pygmy hippos, tapirs and giraffes etc. too but waiting for Peg to pass them to me.
I love the dustbins at the zoo. I want one too!!!
I love animals. They are so fascinating.
It seems that the zoo has just become more personal. And I love it. We could walk right into the butterfly garden (there were hundreds of butterflies just flying around) and see the stingrays in the pond right at our feet) and come into close contact (no barriers!) with the monkeys and the birds...I could reach out and pet them if I wanted to.
The only complaint I had was that it started raining really heavily and we were trapped for more than an hour...then we had to run off in the rain just before the zoo closed on us. Therefore, we didn't get to see the elephants and the kangaroos!!! BOOOOO!!!
All in all it was an enjoyable day...It would have been better if not for the stupid weather...one minute too hot and the next minute it's raining cats and dogs...madness...
The next time I come back it will be the Night Safari for me. Peg and Juice say it's much better than the zoo. The last time I went I couldn't see anything.
Before I forget I want to say thank yew to the person who gave me my favourite flower...
Isn't it gorgeous?
