San Diego Zoo 1


When we visited family in San Diego last week, 

we just had to take a day off to visit the world famous San Diego Zoo.  

It did not disappoint. 

It is a beautiful place, built in part on hills so that the vegetation cascades down.  This Great Blue Turaco took a liking to me and called all his friends over for a photo-op. Awesome!

It must be really spectacular when the flowers bloom.  

Meanwhile though it did drive my allergies a bit nuts!

The big news of the day was the birth of a new baby hippo.  He was less than 48 hours old when this pic was taken with his mom.  I don't think they actually know if it is a boy or girl yet.

It's always fun to catch a little feeding activity.  

And the big cats are stunning.  

But they don't have pandas anymore.  They went back to China last spring.

More pics next week.
Ciao
