An Afternoon at the Zoo

After going to the beach we went to the Tampa Zoo. We had a great time, but we had walked ourselves to death! Here are some pictures we decided to share with you... (Sarah there are a few JUST for YOU--and you will know them when you see them!) But I hope everyone enjoys the pictures as much as we did seeing them.


Even farm animals make it into the Tampa Zoo...It is HUGE!

The Otters were out playing and sliding on their bellies for us...

We got to "pet" sing rays...they are VERY soft and liked to perform by slashing us...

The Rhino is just having a snack.


Here is a Sea Cow coming up for air...they are UGLY!


Evie loves birds...so she wanted to feed some.

Here are those silly birds...they are very brightly colored

Here is a picture of the "fish tank"


This monkey just looks like he wants out to play...

Okay--I'm not sure what they mean by this...but it's sad that they have to post it!

We were lucky that weather was good because the animals came out to perform for us!


Here is Don feeding a bird...almost makes you want to sing "feed the birds"


Here is Don with the Long Necks...

Yes that is Don FEEDING the Long Necks...see Sarah he really does Like them!


This birdie was all show for us...Nothing like an Eagle showing off!

Four little turtles sitting on a log one falls off and...now there's only 3


This is the "new" baby...isn't he a cutie?


This is a bearded pig...they also were very playful when we saw them...

This Gator has a strip of bird poo...but he was the largest!


This little Bison was just wandering around.



Well--we hope you enjoyed our pictures of the zoo. We had a blast being there with Evie. We had to say good bye to her this morning...so we are sad she went home. Hopefully she liked what she saw here and wants to move closer to us! Have a Great week...One more update to come!
