and wow, that was some of the HARSHEST light I have ever shot in. Nearly every one of my photos has something that clipped. On top of that, way too much pollen in the air, which you can catch in some of the pics. Oh well, at least I got some good shots.

1) Entering the Zoo

2) Very blue and clear skies. Very green trees.

3) The locals are hungry... too bad this is the only angle they gave me

5) You have to make sure, when you travel in the zoo, you bring your posse

6) There were definitely dome vibrant characters attending

7) Another camera wielder pointed out this little guy. We both had trouble getting a shot of him standing still for more than a second

17) Wait, that's no elk! The sea lions are tired.

18) I'm really upset that I didn't get this one better. 1/80s shutter speed wasn't fast enough... I'm really bummed

19) Just a turtle, with some strong back lighting.
