We took advantage of the gorgeous weather last week to go visit the zoo with some friends.  It's one of our favorite ways to spend the morning...we have our favorites, but we always see and learn something new as well!

Our friends the flamingos are right by the entrance, so we have to stop and see them three or four times each trip.  This time, we talked about how they eat by turning their heads upside down in the water and filtering out the food they need.




It was cool out, so the elephants were really active.  It's hard to imagine how they get enough food when they're constantly moving!




We always love the petting zoo.  These goats were pretty happy to see us too.






A ride on the train is essential, of course.  J has the best smile!
