a day at the zoo

While the other half of the family was at scout camps this week, I decided to take these two kiddos to the zoo!  There's not a lot of animals to see at the zoo (its pretty small) but the animals were active and healthy today, so we enjoyed seeing what there was to see.

 

 Look close to see the tiger taking a break in the greenery.  He had been roaring and pacing a few minutes earlier!

 I'm not normally a fan of birds, but I couldn't resist snapping a quick picture of these bald eagles since Ryan just received his Eagle award a couple months ago and we were able to have a golden eagle at the ceremony.

  Taking a ride on the rhino! 

 A big part of the zoo exhibit this summer were various animals made of legos near their respective exhibits.  But the best part is actually playing with the legos!  There was a tent set up with these big legos inside that kids could use to build and play. 

 A good morning adventure!
