This past Sunday, we took a little trip over to the Caldwell Zoo in Tyler, TX. It was a nice little zoo - no FTW Zoo, but it was great considering it took us at least half the time to get there than it would FTW. It wasn't huge, but at Mira's age, that's a good thing.
We were spent after visiting all the animals! I had worried that it would be too cool with the wind chill, but it turned out quite warm actually (on the verge of HOT) - it could have been t-shirts and shorts that day!
The parrots were being a little shy - one finally gave us a nice profile shot.
What are they looking at with those serious faces?
A baby Rhino staring right back at us.
Mira was being silly while we waited for Daddy to bring our snacks. This is her "giggle face." Hee Hee Hee
Not sure what this elephant was doing, but he stayed like this most of the time we were watching them.
Mira is trying to get a better view of the aquarium. Look at her on her tip-toes.
She looks like such a BIG girl standing up there like that!!!
Glad we went with the bald eagle and not the turkey as our national bird - that's one thing I disagree with old Ben Franklin on!! Otherwise, a very smart man...
Well, like I said, we really had a great day and thoroughly enjoyed the zoo. I'm sure we'll re-visit it in the near future!
