Ft. Worth Zoo Trip

On our most recent trip to Ft. Worth, we took
Connor to the zoo. We wanted to take Kayleigh also,
but I was under no allusions we could corral
three kids! I am glad she is too young to
feel left out, because I sure felt like a heel!

The kids were first greeted by the gorillas.
They were especially sassy that day, and very
active (the gorillas, not the kids!)

He kept turning around and giving us the back,
then he'd turn back around!

It took a few minutes to determine if the
rhino was real or not.
He finally moved & rearranged himself.
He was definitely enjoying the cool water!

This tiger was slapping the tree.

Billy goats Gruff!!

The birds were very exciting to the kids,
especially since they could feed them. I had
never seen a pink parakeet!

I picked Connor up and put him on the rock
wall and several birds enjoyed a
hand fed snack.

Royanne's jumped on the stick as she was moving it and
the bird didn't seem the least bit apprehensive.
Annie was shrieking with joy, of course!

I think that bird wanted to go home with us.

Guess who wants a bird now?

They were kissing.

Golden Kangaroo

Such a boy!

Royanne enjoyed riding the train Bruce
made Connor while we were there.
