Zoo, Part Deux

Given the stunning success of our last Zoo trip (and because we have passes) we were anxious to give the zoo another go. The weather this past weekend was great and the animals were really active. We of course visited the elephants (one of our favorite animals), and fed the giraffes. This time we went to see the zoo babies and the petting zoo of sorts.

At the moment turtles are far and away Lily's favorite animal. She knows the sign (although, she has adapted it slightly), and recognizes them everywhere. Over near the petting zoo and barnyard animals they had a volunteer watching a tortoise crawl around. This was here big chance to get up close and personal with a turtle-type animal and she didn't disappoint!


We also made another trip to the Lorakeets and escaped unscathed (at least Lily did). For some reason, those birds love to take a bite out of me!

Here are some pics from the day.
