Zoo pictures

We've been to the zoo with visiting family twice in the last ten days or so.  Here are a few of the pictures I took.

This is my favorite of all of them.  The sea lions are one of the most fun animals to see because they are HUGE and they swim right up against the glass.


 

Flamingoes!

 

Giraffe!  In the earlier visit, the male giraffes were fighting.  It was hilarious.  I really regret not shooting video.  Each giraffe was whacking his opponent in the rear.  With its horns.  Can you imagine the maneuvering of doing that while mostly facing your (giraffe) opponent?  I couldn't have, until I saw it with my own eyes.

 

I got lucky with some reflections, and cropped the photo accordingly.

 

We couldn't find the crocodile.  I wonder where it was?

 

My fearsome mountain goat riders.
