Zoo Part 1

The Monday I got back from Michigan Chelsea and I went to the zoo. I really needed to do something to get my mind off missing home already. 

Flamingos !!! Did you know they are pink because they eat only shrimp so the pink color goes into their feathers.

Either this guy is a very picky eater or its a baby

Sloth Bear - First guy we saw walking in and we scared us cause he was right in our face. Pretty cute, but slow looking

Some type of cate

They have a couple elephants here and a very big yard for them. Also they have elephant walks that go through the park which is nice to see so these big guys can get out and move.




Meerkat ? Oh just checking out the view....what's up ya'll



Vulture doesn't he look like a BA

And hude



He is awesome! When we got there he was playing peek-a-boo with this lady. Everytime she got out of his sight he would stretch his neck out, move over on the branch, or jump onto the fence to see her. I played with him too! It was awesome!

Fruit Loops any one

Papa Bear

Isn't he cute

A shrimp in the red

I want to say this is some kind of leemar 

these guys were every where! in lots of different exhibits, a lion tamiara? 

LOVE THIS GUY! Kamodo Dragon

So Powerful

The old lady of the group, she was a pleasure to watch. So adorable and sweet.

They put fruit into the barrel for her to figure out how to get it out. She tried dunking it in water to  see if they would float out. She got the apple slices in under 5 minutes tho



Very Big Star Fish

hey, leave me alone I'm a lil crabby today

The big guy just handing out

The lady's next door


Chilling in the shade

Ring tail lemars........they are very playful, but don't ask them to "move it, move it" they get angry
 Chelsea had to work at 1 or maybe I did but we couldn't stay to see everything so this is part 1
