Christy, Jesse, and I went to the Audubon Zoo while we were in New Orleans. We love it and it is a stop we make on almost every trip.
Flamingos are graceful and beautiful. I enjoy watching them.
I think this is a Sun Bear. He looked deceptively friendly as he posed for everyone. Check out those claws. WOW!
I like tortoises. They look look old and wise. Several have lived with me for short periods of time.
Quack! Quack!
This looks like a lemur to me. They were enjoying a little snack.
See what else I’m doing.

Great shots of a good time. I haven’t been to a zoo in so long; I think the last trip was about 10 years ago.
I agree with you that flamingos are so graceful. I love the vivid color of the one you captured through your lens!

Is anything cuter than a baby duck? I like zoos that obviously take good care of their animals. They have company, get fed, housed, kept clean…seems better than trying to survive in the wild!

I’m with you on that. Zoos that provide an appropriate environment are awesome.

i don’t know, people. a cage is still a cage, even if the bars are cushioned. or so says my rebel heart. which has broken itself on a cage or two, and maybe lost too much, in that doing. sorry. story for another day. meanwhile, as you know, good sir, i love your excursions with your beloveds.
