The girls and I decided to go to the zoo today. Thanks to a season pass from Oma, we can go whenever we want this year! And seeing as today was forcast for sun, but not too hot, we decided it would be a perfect day to explore the animals. We saw something at the zoo we've never seen before - eggs! Ostrich eggs, by the looks of them. That and the fact that it was in the ostrich enclosure! We saw lots of new babies at the zoo today. We saw Shadow the grizzly bear playing in the water and eating/playing with some corn on the cob. We took the bus and saw a black bear and an albino black bear. We watch the lions being fed (it was too hot for the tigers to join them today) and we saw the Birds Of Prey show. There were lots of neat birds. There were hawks and falcons, and even a bald eagle! This is a great horned owl. But the best part of the show was Rachael got to be a volunteer! We've seen the show before, so she knew what was going to happen. She got to pull Legless the "rabbit" for the hawk(?) to try and catch. And of course that's right when my batteries decided to die. Of all the luck! But, at the end of the show she got to have her picture taken with a great horned owl! Pretty cool! We were at the zoo from 11:00 until 3:30 and didn't once hear any complaints about being too tired to walk! Pretty good, I thought!
