Zoo....

Hailee, Carol and I went up to Atascadero to go the Charles Paddock Zoo.  It is a very small zoo, but they had some fun animals like the meerkat, tiger and monkeys.  We think some of the animals are there because they had been hurt like the vulture. IMG_4102 copyIMG_4105 copyIMG_4351 copyIMG_4378 copy The Meerkats were very cute and they were just as curious about us as we were of them. Look at that face!IMG_4148 copy IMG_4262 copy IMG_4250 copy IMG_4248 copy IMG_4243 copy IMG_4241 copy IMG_4229 copy IMG_4177 copy IMG_4156 copyIMG_4273 copy IMG_4281 copyIMG_4193 copy      Most zoo's that I have been to the birds are always in cages, not here they were just out on perches and you could get pictures of them without the bars, except for the owl.IMG_4427 copyIMG_4441 copy

Your photos are amazing and those parrots are so colorful. I love the photo of the white parrot. The tiger looks so relaxed so he must have been well fed:) Thanks for sharing.

I hope you'll drop by AtticMag to see the butterflies I found. #8 on Outdoor Wednesday.

Amazing zoo pictures!! We were supposed to go to the zoo yesterday, but it was literally too busy and so we had to make other plans. So sad! I would have loved to capture some shots like that.

Great shots. Looks like you had a great time at the zoo. As long as the animals are well cared for ... the size of the zoo doesn't matter. Some of my favorite zoos are *small*. Happy critter day!
