Tired

After a long day of walking the Zoo, I am not sure who looks more tired here…Joe or his son Austin.

Symbol

The bald Eagle symbolizing America…in a cage. Much like our liberties, our keepers have decided that it is best to keep us caged up for our own safety of course.
(hmm…perhaps to deep for an outing to the zoo post)

Zoo Flowers

Not sure what kind of tree this is, but it has some of the prettiest pink/white flowers I have ever seen. There were quite a few of the trees around the Zoo and on the grounds leading to the zoo from the Metro.

Just found out that this is the Kousa Dogwood (thanks Wendi!)

Johnny at rest!
Sigh..I love my cell phone, but some of the photos that it takes are rather…”eh!” Needless to say this is a gorilla relaxing in the shade.
