ZOO DAY

Yesterday was a beautiful day! Richard was home and the weather was gorgeous, so we took a trip to the zoo.

Sam loves animals....

...what animal are we concentrating on here.....

.....this guy!

Samuel really likes monkeys.

This baby zebra was just born Monday night!

The giraffe enclosure allows us really close access.

They had a few lamas out that you could pet, but Sam wasn't too sure that was a good idea.

Here are some of our other favorite animals....

 ...the flamingos...

 ....the tortoise...

 ....the polar bear....

 ....the kangaroo...

 ....the peacock...which roam around the zoo....

 ....the sea lion.....
.....and the elephants.....this baby elephant was born in July. Her name is Rosy.

The ducks are really friendly too and we wanted Sam to feed them, but he wanted to eat the duck food. It comes out of that machine you see behind Richard. I wasn't sure what it was, so we thought that might not be a good idea.

This one is biting on Richard's shoes trying to get his attention.

Then we had a picnic in the park.

It was a beautiful day!
