Zoo Time
Ahmazing and love it soo much that we return yearly. Our 4 year old son has now been here 3 times already. We love it that much. Today the otters were playing hide and seek with him and the elephant put on a huge show for us. Black Bear was less than amused While be slept this afternoon in the sun.

Elephants, buffalo, and playful otter.
Even when we're not enering the zoo, we visit the elephants, Emma and Ruth, from the Buttonwood Park Pond parking area. I have posted pics of 350 Canada Geese that visit the pond, and recently walked on ice. See my FB page, Birdtalk.
