Fallen Leaves

Another Autumnal post. I found tons of different kinds of leaves as I walked around the zoo earlier this month. (Last month by the time you read this post tomorrow) So many different shapes and colors. I love Fall. :)

Giraffes in Autumn

Autumn is a great time to visit the zoo. The trees look amazing. Of course, my reason for visiting has more to do with a certain very tall creature, rather than a very tall plant, but with these pictures I got two in one. :)

Feathered Attitudes

I’ve heard that most parrots  and their relatives can be downright little stinkers sometimes. Looking at them at the zoo you can tell that they’re not just a pretty face. They each have their own personality.

This cockatoo spent the whole time I was around him climbing up and down his cage with the beak telling everyone who came to see him, hello and goodbye.

Baby Bongo!

In yesterday’s post I introduced you to another one of my favorite animals, the bongo. In today’s post I have pictures of a brand new baby bongo, just a few months old. All baby animals are cute, but this little guy is almost TOO cute. :D

I took so many pictures of this little guy that day. Cute just isn’t a good enough word to fully describe how adorable he is. :)
