County Zoo Aviary

Another zoo trip!  This time we went to a part of the park we usually miss: the aviary.  (As is happening to me lately, the pictures loaded out of order and I'm in no mood to fix them.)

Evie and Lizzie with garden sculptures, Evie with a giraffe and Lizzie with a rhino.


 I loved their momen to stop and chill.  They ran ahead just so that they could rest a moment on the tiger massaging bench.  It's coin operated, so they didn't get the massage, but it's a nify seat!

Both of the girls had fun playing in their new-to-them play skirts.  Someone in our ward was paring down her storage and offered several women to paw through before she carted it off to good will. SCORE!  I love this picture, "Watch my skirt twirl, Mom!"

This may be completely out of focus, but it's a top favorite of mine.  Lizzie was showing me her twirl and I didn't even stop to check my camera settings - but the blur is kind of cool to me!

Colonel Mustard, I presume?  (That's literally what Aaron said when he sighted this bird!)




Loved catching these reflections!


I pointed this flamingo out to Evie and asked her to please bend her neck in half to scratch her shoulder with her nose.  Quite a funny look for a six year old, and I'm chagrined to have missed her reaction.
