ZOO ADVENTURE, PART 6: MY FAVORITE ZOO EXHIBIT

So... what's my favorite zoo animal ever?

Otters!

And here's an entire post devoted to them!

Yay! 

So, feel some otter love for me!

(Although I couldn't add the gif I wanted to in...

Photoshop doesn't like me very much, apparently.)

ZOO ADVENTURE, PART 5: MAMMALICIOUS

Ah, warthogs. The Phantoms of the animal kingdom --

the maskless wielders of the ugly stick. 

I, personally, think warthogs are really, really cool.

Especially the way they sit on their knees to snort around in the dirt.

And that long, luscious back hair. Braid-worthy.

But, in all seriousness: warthogs are cool.

As are the other zoo mammals -- check 'em out!

What did I say about the knee thing?

These prairie dogs were just being fed --

they were yippin' and squackin' all over the place!

They'd jump in the air on their hind legs

and squeal. It was adorable!

I forgot what these guys are called, but they're pretty much pigs with quills.

Cuties.

Lions and tigers -- oh my! (But, apparently, no bears!)

Loved the camels! Really pretty!

Aaron was just like, "Them floppy humps."

Way to ruin the moment.

I LOVE RED PANDAS. 

Caps lock gets my point across better, right?

These guys are Takins. The one at the front, I believe, is Kong,

and the one right behind is Mulan --

they just had a baby!

See him in the back? 

The zoo was holding a contest to name him! 

Cool!

Anyway, the above guys were super cool!

Hope you enjoyed and thanks for visiting!

ZOO ADVENTURE, PART 4: THEM BIRDS

The above delightful creature scared me half to death --

I didn't realize he was staring at the back of my head

(from, like, a foot away and behind a wall)!

So, anyway, I love birds, if you couldn't tell already.

But zoo birds are a totally different story --

I don't know if they freak me out or if I love them.

(Especially the peacocks, which run around all wild-like.)

Here are some bird pictures!

ZOO ADVENTURE, PART 3: REPTILES, FISH, OH MY!

Above are the beautiful fish from the koi pond at the zoo.

One of my favorite things to see at the zoo are the reptiles and fish --

I love being in the little in-door reptile exhibits

and I love sitting around and watching the aquatic creatures!

(I love aquariums, too -- one of my favorite places!)

So here are some reptiles, fish, and whatever else pictures! 

Enjoy!

ZOO ADVENTURE, PART 2: PRIMATES!

Our main goal at the zoo the other day was to study primates, because Aaron's in an anthropology class and this is his extra credit. (Can I just say... BEST EXTRA CREDIT EVER! Why does he get all the cool classes?) So, this whole post will be all primates, primarily because I had to stand around watching Tamarin's for an hour so he could study them, but oh well. They're awesome and adorable and super cool (and I chose them as his assignment, so, whatever!) 

Enjoy these cuties!

ZOO ADVENTURE, PART 1

So, last Friday (the 26th), Aaron and I went to the zoo for his anthropology class. Thankfully, as of a few days ago, I now have a laptop (my dad's old squad car laptop, which is from 2008 but works really well!) and can edit the 900+ pictures I took of the various animals (I am ashamed of how many photos I took, really). I downloaded a free version of photoshop from my college database and now can edit pictures... although I'm still rusty with this newer version of photoshop. 

Anyway, Aaron and I went to the zoo and had a blast! I have a bajillion pictures, but I'll just do a general outfit overview today and get into the animals next time!
