Morning at the Zoo…Part II

Here are just a few more shots from our trip to the zoo Friday…I actually have many, many more that I could share, but I have lots of other pics to edit too! And really…these are some of my absolute faves, so they are the ones you get to see!!

Love those rainbow shades!! Miss Gappy Tooth! Huntler’s teeth have always been perfect…we are hoping sissy’s come in straight when she gets her permanent teeth!

Huntler was covering his ears because the “Scarlet Goldcaws” were WAY too loud! Go Diego Go is a popular show around this house and the “Scarlet McCaw” is one of the most talked about animals on the show. Huntler has created his own little version…Anyway, he was absolutely fascinated to see them in real life, but we all know how obnoxiously loud and annoying birds can be…the little man couldn’t have agreed more!!!
This is one of my favorites of him…we had just left the porcupine exhibit…he was wearing down and ready to see the giraffes and head home! Can you tell the difference in the colors of the black and whites in these two images? I used two different actions by two different artists and the top one has more brown tones in it. I bet you never realized that a black and white could have brown tones, eh?!! I didn’t get it so much until I had two right beside each other! Very interesting!
You have to click on this one to see it bigger! Yes….Huntler is feeding the giraffes!! It was similar to a cattle call up there on the podium to feed these beloved giraffes and it is a miracle that I managed to get any photos worth saving considering the large amount of people crammed into a not so large space, but I did! YEAH! Proof that he was that close to a giraffe!
Although the kids were tired, exhausted more like it, after spending the morning at the zoo, they both lit up when they saw the carousel. So, Grandma and Daddy each took a kiddo and went for a ride while I stayed back and took pictures. I didn’t mind much…I get motion sickness and prefer to be on solid ground!! I am amazed I didn’t get dizzy just taking pictures!! They had to pick the scariest animal up there to put this little princess on!! Huntler rode a giraffe, of course!! 

This is a little off topic, but several weeks ago Huntler requested a crocodile cake for his birthday (which is not until September but I like to plan waaaayy ahead!)…we are so going to take this jungle theme and run with it! I can’t wait!!
