First we stopped at the Lorikeet exhibit, where there are lots and lots of pretty birds flying around and you can feed them. Some people were leaving and so they gave us their nectar cup. Mama held it still for a while and pretty soon a bird landed on her hand. So cool! It was drinking from the cup. Then another bird came and landed on her hand so she had two birds on her hand drinking from our cup. I petted one of the birds and wanted a bird on my hand too. So I helped mama hold the cup and one of the birds put its foot on my hand! I was very excited but held very still. Then a bird landed on mama's head! We hung out there for a while and then I wanted to go see the monkeys. And the hippos. So we handed off the nectar cup to a little boy and his daddy.
So here I am, on the way to the Africa exhibits.While we were there, mama started pulling out my snacks in a desperate (and ultimately, futile) attempt to ward off my low blood sugar irritability. I was eating my little baggie of popcorn and a little boy walking by saw my bag and came in for a closer look, then helped himself to a piece of popcorn. Silly baby!
And here I am at the polar bears exhibit.
...and...leaving the polar bears exhibit.
We rode the MAX train to the zoo. I am very good and wait patiently for it to come get me.We saw new things today like the bats and meercats and duikers. I had a lot of fun this morning but I think mama had even more fun (the bird thing).
