Cara Cara

An awesome bird here with fantastic looks on its face. Apparently they can be found in Texas. Or at the zoo...

National bird

National bird here. Hard to think Ben Franklin wanted to choose the turkey over this. We'll be eating his suggestion soon enough! I guess that was early political mudslinging...

Nosy!

After the lorikeet woke up, it brought a friend over to visit me. They were awful 'friendly' little birds!

Slobbering giraffe

If you look closely, you can see the string of slobber from this giraffe. That tree must have had some good leaves on it!

Birdy birdy

This little lorikeet was sound asleep when I entered the aviary. Don't worry, it woke up soon enough...

Snake by the water

I haven't taken the time to figure out what kind of snake this was. It was pretty far away (my favorite kind of snake!).

Zoo Days

I took these photos at a nearby zoo. I wish I could say that I had stumbled across them in the wild but some of these photos I met get call out on. Giraffe, in my backyard? Ha!

What a strange idea the giraffe. They have the same amount of neck-bones that we do, they're only much longer. I've always enjoyed them.
