What a great idea

Perfect weather to blow outta work early and go to the zoo –

Zoo kinda day

The penguins were taking advantage of the sunshine to work on their tans –

The jaguar had just eaten lunch. A cow I think –

Obviously stuffed, he took a nap too –

Then I stumbled across this dude. He’s a Red Ruffed Lemur. He’s VERY intense. Well, maybe not, but he looks like it –

Then I saw some TV star –

Meerkat

Then I found the big cat. Mama lion was yelling for her cubs –

Calling all cubs

All 4 came running back to her, INSTANTLY! –

Quattro

Playtime doesn’t end just because mom called –

Still playing

And just like that, the star attractions were gone for the day. Oh well, I guess I’ll have to go back.

On the way out, I did spy one last wild animal –

Zoo duck butt

So there was my great idea for the day.

I’m just glad the city isn’t using it in their efforts to save money on the light-rail line.

Slowly. Very, very slowly.

But it’s a start –

 

Starting

 

Four weeks, four thousand dollars, and four injured elbows later, the grass seed is starting to take.

Looks like you’re off the hook Mike. But don’t go celebrating just yet….

On his turf. At first he was a bit shy –

 

I'll just hide back here where no-one can see me

After a while, he warmed up to me got hungry enough to go back to fishing –

 

Don't bother me, I'm fishing for me supper

Don’t bother me, I’m fishing for me supper

 

Awesome creature. I’m sure the frogs and turtles that he was having for dinner might think differently, but I think he’s cool.
