Jen and the kids took me to the Denver Zoo again, today. I suspect from the screams of delight that this baby giraffe might have been the hit of the zoo, and it was certainly cute:
For me, though, the highlight of the zoo continues to be their remarkable collection of birds. Though I suspect it’s been around for awhile, this is the first time I’ve noticed this Secretary Bird, one I might not have even noticed if it hadn’t appeared on the cover of one of Shelley Power’s books:
Though I think my favorite bird continues to be this East African Crowned Crane:
I’ve always wanted to see a secretary bird in person.
Nice pics, Loren.
Love the crane. Hope you’re enjoying your visit.
Ooohhhh! The baby giraffe made me smile, I like the secreaty bird, too, but your capture of the crane is by far my favourite. I’m still catching my breath.
The birds are great, but the baby giraffe is excellent!!
I think the baby giraffe is cool, but the crane’s hairdue is awsome!!!
love the pics the cranes hairdoo is wicked i love it. my favorite is the cute giraffe with its very long tounge!!!
