First trip to the Zoo

DSC_2268

We took Gwynn to the Birmingham Zoo for the first time on Sunday. It was a bit overcast and drizzled on the way over, but it turned out to be fun and the zoo ended up being nearly deserted.

Gwynn and Mommy stopped to pose by the Macaws. They were loud.

It seemed a bit chilly when we first got there, so Gwynn was rocking the owl hat.

Here is a picture of a Tiger lying down. I think it’s symbolic of Auburn’s season this year.

Mommy and Gwynn posing with the elephant. They had to climb the fence to get so close and the zoo employees got mad, but I think the picture is worth it. That elephant was MAD though.

Kind of a weird thing to ask us to do, but we did. Probably lost over $1.50 in nickels and dimes.
