There were parrots and cocatiels and parakeets. The parakeets were the most eager to eat our seeds.
In fact, poor Ellea mustered enough courage to hold a seed stick (she's suspicious of animals attacking her), and while one parakeet was eating her seeds, another dive-bombed her! She was not impressed. It didn't help my cause in convincing her that most animals are harmless.
Another fabulous John Drake picture. Lions, tigers and bears, oh my!
And then there were the wolf and elk exhibits. We were convinced that these predator-prey creatures were in the same enclosure. We were impressed that they could feed the wolves enough to make them not attack the elk. Yeah, right. Turns out there is ditch between them that contains the fence. Seems cruel to make them live by such unnatural neighbors! Like making me live next to a chocolate factory with no access inside. Ugh. The trauma!!
