Volunteering at the Fort Worth Zoo in MOLA
Today was my second day volunteering at the Fort Worth Zoo. Schools were all off for President’s Day, the weather was in the 70’s with a prediction of rain, but if it rained at all, it was just sprinkles. My first day last week was very quiet, it was cold and cloudy, so there were…

Visiting Gus, Belle and Bowie at the Fort Worth Zoo 4-27-2016
First of all, I noticed that I haven’t written anything for many many months! I have thought about it, but just haven’t had the chance to sit down and write. As usual for this time of year, I am immersed in flamenco. I can’t say that I’m a flamenco dancer, I’m more of a stage…

Belle and Bowie Are A Year Old This Summer
This summer, Belle and Bowie are celebrating their first birthdays! Belle’s is July 7, 2013 and Bowie’s is August 5, 2013… almost a month apart. Belle is Bowie’s Aunt… Belle is the sister of Bluebonnet who is Bowie’s mom and both Belle and Bluebonnet are daughters of Rasha. I have been watching them grown since…

A Visit With Belle and Bowie At The Zoo…
On Wednesday, January 22, 2014, I took a small trip to the zoo. It’s been weeks since I’ve seen the babies, I’ve had so much going on with my dance showcase at the YMCA with rehearsals and performances. I did stop by the day after my performance on January 15, but it was…

Back To The Zoo
After the gym this morning, I took a quick trip to the zoo. I want to try and visit at least once a week to watch Belle and Bowie grow. All of the adult females were out, Rasha, Bluebonnet and Angel and the two babies, Belle (the large and older one) and Bowie.. the real baby.…

Bowie and Belle at the Fort Worth Zoo
I wasn’t planning on going to the zoo today, but I finished my work early and thought that since I probably won’t be able to go tomorrow or over the weekend, then I better go today. It was another day with both babies, their moms and Angel. Angel is an extended family Aunt to…

Today was Bowie’s Day!
I arrived at the zoo today at 10, just while busloads of school children arrived and were lining up to go into the zoo, so I was happy to get there when I did! At the gate, there was a notice that neither Bowie nor Belle would be on exhibit today. I asked…

Another Day and Still No Bowie… But a couple of Videos of Belle and Rasha
I just can’t seem to get enough of Belle and her mom, Rasha. I won’t put too many photos here today, only 3 of my favorites from today, but I also did a couple of short videos of them. I found out that Belle is 495 lbs (I think I posted yesterday that she was…

I Was So Sure That Today Would Be Bowie’s Day….
But no Bowie… I got to the elephants this morning before they were out. Kami or Kelly weren’t there, but Mike was (today was my first time talking with Mike, but Kami introduced me to him yesterday). We were waiting for the elephants to come out, then the Zookeepers came out to make sure the…

Another Day of No Bowie… But Fun Watching Belle
Today I went to the zoo with the thought that today will be the day that Bowie comes out… well, not today. I see now that they post it at the entrance whether or not Bowie (or another animals) will be out for public viewing. I’ve never noticed that before, but I am sure…

Babies Born at the Fort Worth Zoo
This is my blog about the Fort Worth Zoo babies. The Fort Worth Zoo is one of the best attractions in Fort Worth, and one of the best zoos I have ever been to. In the past two years there has been 3 new very big babies born. There was Asha, the One-Horned Rhino…

Just a Quick Trip to Check On The Babies
Today I just stopped in quickly to see if Bowie was out, he’s still not on exhibit yet. Today Belle was nursing… that is just so cute!

Belle Was So Cute Today
Well, Belle is always cute, but she was especially active today. It rained this morning on the way to the zoo, and maybe the rain energized her. She was playful, she played in and out of the little cubby area and then she was a bit wobbly on her feet. And here is…

Asha and Shanti, the One Horned Rhinos
After visiting with Belle and Rasha, I stopped by to see Asha and Shanti. Asha is so snuggly and stays right by Mom, Shanti’s, side.

Another Day Hoping To See Bowie
Today is 9-11… always a sad day in remembrance of those who lost their lives to the terrorist attack in 2001. It’s a hard day for many of us, so many memories of that day and the months that followed all come back. I went to the zoo again, and watching the babies…
