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…

Belle, Rasha, Primates and more.
This morning, Rasha and Belle came out and ran straight to the little stack of hay. Rasha doesn’t like to eat where they put it for her, so she runs over to the hay with Baby Belle following close by, and picks up her food to eat her breakfast in private. Today she…

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…

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…

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…
