October Zoo

Clear blue skies and cool air caused us to make a trip to the Albuquerque zoo.  Nothing like a beautiful October day, a few frisky animals, and great friends to make one's day special.

The polar bears gave us a show while they swam and played.

This bear finally tired out.

A burrowing owl made Chloe's cuteness meter go off the charts.  "He's SO CUTE!!!!"

Mr. Gorilla knows how to pose for the camera.

Do you know what a pinniped is?  These three do!  They've been learning about them in their science class, so feel free to ask them what one is.  (Hint:  They are posing near one.)

Chloe loved feeding the baby duck.  His slippery little webbed feet couldn't seem to get enough traction on the cement.

A peacock decided to nose into the duck feeding frenzy.

Happy fall everyone!

I've never thought about an owl being cute. Guess I'll have to see it through Chloe's eyes. : )
