ABC Wednesday—P is for "polar bear"

The polar bears who live at the Bronx Zoo have 
a cold-water pool to play—and keep
cool—in, but don't have nearly the space they
would in the wild and don't enjoy their 
preferred diet of seal meat either.  But then 
again, they also don't know the difference.

ABC Wednesday—G is for "giraffe"

And speaking of giraffes, this tower
(yes, a group of giraffes is
called a tower!) lives peacefully
at the Bronx Zoo.

ABC Wednesday—D is for "daydreaming"

Now, how did that Kinks song go?
Oh, right.

ABC Wednesday—C is for "cat"

This beautiful kitty has a pretty big space
at the Bronx Zoo, but maybe could
use a bit more; she was pacing the length
of it over and over.  Or maybe she just
needs more stimulation.  Must admit, I have
mixed feelings about zoos.

Weekend Reflections

This is the elevated subway station
at E. Tremont Avenue, up in the Bronx,
where you get off to go to the zoo.

Pink Saturday

I came across these beautiful pink flamingos
preening themselves when I visited the
Bronx Zoo recently.  So elegant!

Thursday Challenge—"powerful"

I went to the Bronx Zoo recently, and stopped 
by to see the band of gorillas.  This is the
silverback: the big kahuna, the main man—large
and in charge.  Don't mess with this dude!
