I went to the
Sacramento Zoo and have pics to share! We saw lots of cool animals and birds and I think the giraffes and the red pandas were my favorite.
Right when we walked in, there was a Great Horned Owl to greet us...

If this guy looks familiar it's because I see them in my backyard every day! This smart House Sparrow was mooching off the food in the Hornbill's cage...

Of all the ducks in the pond, we'd actually already seen most of them out in the wild at our favorite wildlife refuges. It was neat seeing them closer up, though...

This cutie patootie was a blast to watch...

How can you not love this guy's face and want to bring him home with you???

Unfortunately, I don't think my ceilings are quite high enough though...

Last month, it was practically a miracle that we saw our first Wood Duck ever at Gray Lodge Wildlife Area. At the zoo, there were dozens of them posing for the camera and looking all rainbowy and shimmery in the sunshine...
