February 25, 2021 – A Snowbird's Life Through the Lens

I narrowed my choices for the day into cleaning out the inside of the car, or go to the zoo. I told myself that going to the zoo was my ‘saintlier’ choice since I’d be taking advantage of my pay-for-a day and visit for a year pass. It’s only a deal if you use it.

This little one was all by himself on the little waterway between the monkey enclosures. I loved the ripple he made as he frantically swam upstream, and had just wondered where his mother was when a posse of ducklings came into view.

This looked like a scene from a movie to me.

Something big must have been going on since there were all these guys in tuxes standing around.

Meet and greet with the Galapagos tortoises.

If you walked down to the viewing area you can get a picture of a rhino’s eye. From up above you can see just how close you can be to them. Judging by size this is the ‘baby’ white rhino.

I love how well they have landscaped around the primate/monkey sections.

I guess it’s that time of year since the planting areas had lots of new plants set in place, waiting to be planted. It will be pretty.

You can wear your heart on your sleeve but this guy wears his on his nose.

This house sparrow hangs out with elephants.

Another day gotten through. There is no goal in mind exactly, just to get through this whole, strange, time we find ourselves in. I’ve been wondering if we’ll know when it’s over, or will it just fade into a new way of living…
