Today at the zoo

My singles group went to the zoo today (don't tell the neighbors... they don't know I didn't mow the yard again today. Maybe tomorrow.)

Anyway, I took 277 photos, and thought I would share some.

A mallard. I love his markings. He was fighting with the geese, catfish, turtles and other ducks for the peanuts kids were throwing in "Monkey Lake." I don't know if they still call it that, but there was once an island in the middle of the lake that was inhabited by monkeys.

This rodent was busy dragging stuff into his burrow. He lives with the tigers, who were off taking a nap.

And finally, a real moon shot. The elephants were keeping time with their tails.

Wow, what great pictures. I love the OKC Zoo and have a lot of good memories of that place.
