A few more photos from my zoo trip this week. Despite a chill in the air and the skies mostly overcast, there was plenty of color to brighten up the afternoon.
Our winged friends were dressed in such brilliant finery............and the blooms in the tropical domes were spectacular.
I've never seen a frog such as this in my garden ~ perhaps it's time to construct a pond.......with a waterfall..........aquatic plants........and at this point in the conversation dh's eyes start rolling back and that pained look appears on his face!
This is a beautiful Mahonia............it brings tears to my eyes because the voles chewed through my beauty this past year after it had reached several feet in height......and then just toppled over one day. Perhaps a tropical dome in our back garden, on a vole proof concrete footing..............just kidding dear!

Oh, I loooove the blue frog! I want one...but then I really want the beautiful garden and birds too. Oh yeah, it's snowing here again and I just want to find that little groundhog that saw its shadow and SHOOT IT. There isn't a bud of a tulip or daffodil or even crocus to be seen here yet.

Oh, the flamingoes are my favorite. But, that little blue frog is a cutie.
