Columbus Zoo

On Thursday we went to the Columbus zoo . . . and being a little bit of a zoo snob (San Diego has a World Famous zoo :) I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised. Actually more than pleasantly surprised, this zoo was awesome! Here are the highlights . . .

A giant bull moose! Last time I came to this zoo I really, really wanted to see the moose, but there wasn't even one to be seen. This time we saw this guy and his 3 female friends. As a little side note the Columbus Zoo has a fantastic North America area with, of course, North American animals.


The Flying Foxes are waking up. The wing span is unbelievable!



An Emerald Starling just hanging out. The aviaries are pretty neat here, they're smaller but have a great selection of sparkly, colorful birds.


A bored gorilla.
