A Polar Autumn

One thing I like about the zoo is seeing things that you don’t see every day. If ever! Like a polar bear surrounded by colorful autumn leaves. :)

Autumn Colors at the Zoo

Walking around the zoo in the fall is pretty awesome. Here are some of my favorite pictures from this last Autumn. Fall is my favorite season. Maybe these pictures will help cheer up your winter. :)

Faintly Macabre

Bonus Points if you get the reference in the title! :)

I went to visit the gorillas the last time I was at the zoo, and there were none. I guess the late fall weather of Iowa is just too different than the late fall weather of the African jungles for them. I walked around to make sure they were all gone, but they had all been moved inside, and this was all I found all over Gorilla Valley.

I think they must have used jack-o'-lanterns for the heads, and the gorillas probably ate them. :)

Is this the face of a killer? :)

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. :)

I love all these shots, but this last one is my favorite.
