PirateTinkerbell Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 The Phoenix Zoo on Sunday, October 17, 2010! This past Sunday my best friend, her son, and I went to the Phoenix Zoo! I didn’t take a ton of pictures but here are the ones I did get that day! Enjoy! All of these pictures are available for viewing in their original size (plus many more pictures!!) on my flickr which you can see here: http://www.flickr.com/piratetinkerbell Currently at the Phoenix Zoo they have two Koalas, Kobi and Sooky, that are on loan from the San Diego Zoo. Since I LOVE Koalas we had to go see them! Both of them were sleeping but I did get a couple pictures of Sooky. Also in the general area of the Koalas are these cute little Wallabys! This one had the right idea… stay in the shade! Unlike Indiana Jones, I love snakes! Soon after seeing the Koalas we stopped to sit on a bench in the shade. There were some cute little sparrows hopping around so I took some pictures of them A little later in the day we headed through the Arizona trail and there was a very cool little Burrowing Owl! He heard my camera clicking and turned and looked right at me! I’m a big fan of the funny look on his face Also on the Arizona Trail are three beautiful Mexican Wolfs. They are pretty big and kinda scary when you see their teeth, but they’re still awesome! And that’s all I’ve got this time! It was getting kind of hot and carrying around the camera in the heat was no fun so I didn’t take as many pictures as I would have liked. Even so, it was a fun day filled with cool animals! Hope you enjoyed and have a wonderful week! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 Thanks for sharing! I wish you guys had more in the way of parks in Phoenix, but at least you've got koalas! --Robb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidra Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Really awesome pictures. I just moved away from Phoenix and we always had zoo passes when we lived there. The Mexican wolves are my favorite, they are completely silent and hard to spot if they aren't doing their laps at the front of the enclosure, great shots. What kind of camera do you use?
