I was going a bit stir crazy to get OUT and do something, so Daddy took us to the zoo on Saturday! The weather was absolutely perfect for it!
We had an up-close view of the aldabra tortoises at meal time! We could have pet them. Sasha was fascinated, by the tortoises AND the people!

I believe this may be the Tulsa Zoo's new Tiger, Jin
One young African Penguin kept swimming back and forth in front of the window. It would swim right up to the children! Sasha immediately recognized and signed that they were birds!
Uhhhh ~ Bear
Edit: New Grizzly Bear @ the Tulsa Zoo
Once her feet hit the ground, she wouldn't have it any other way! We thought she'd slow us down, but we had nowhere to be. She actually kept up pace, no problem! She has been walking for 8 months now.

Flamingos and... Swans?

We signed for monkeys, too!
Another monkey ~ kept looking at Elmo between photos.
See all those people in the back? All the chimps were are on our side, which we had to ourselves! The chimps came right over to where we were, too.
After standing Sasha on the fence to see the chimpanzees, she wanted to walk the top. She really has great balance!

The flamingos here live in an enclosure with one poor lonely swan who has taken to standing on one leg. There are also a load of ducks taking advantage of the warm water in there.
Oh, man, I'm jealous of your actual sun. It won't stop raining here, and I have to admit we're all a bit stir crazy.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun day you had & I love all the signing! Look how cute she is walking. :) Maybe she could teach Mikko how to keep up!
So cool. Love it! :D
