San Antonio Zoo

It was so much fun going to the zoo.  There were so many things to see and do.  

There were birds that love water,


 and birds that were BIG!



Kangaroos, 

 and tigers jiggity jig!

Here's Mommy and Ella, 


and some crazy blue-headed fella!





 And here I am just soaking it in: sun, fun...


 and an animal on the run!

San Antonio Zoo

On Monday, the boys and I went to the zoo with our friends.  The San Antonio Zoo is really kid-friendly.  


In addition to a petting zoo, the had this little building with activities like fishing, a play place and "beach" with a small stream.






At this zoo, they had a butterfly house.  I'd never been it one before.  It was awesome!





The butterfly below had beautiful, bright-blue wings on the inside.  When it flew, it fluttered its wings so fast it was hard to get a decent picture.  When it landed, it closed its wings and looked quite ordinary on the outside.






The rest of the animals we saw included:

Mr. Bear


Multiple Pink Flamingos


Birds of All Kinds






Monkeys


Oh, wait.  No, these are the monkeys.  :)


A Big Old Turtle


Down-under Kangaroos


Mr. "Friendly" the Hippo


and many, many more!  What a fun day it was.
