Fun Day at the Zoo

Last Sunday, as a thank you to all the Wisconsin Vets, we were invited to a beautiful day at the County Zoo.

The day began with a great and tasty picnic lunch which we shared with 12 of our friends including Mike & Shaelin.

We visited the zoo's newest exhibit, "Wings from Down Under." The exhibit features more than 1000 birds from Australia who are flying everywhere. They give you a food stick with millet to lure them to sit on your finger.

Our friend, Robin, who just happens to be Shaelin's new "crush" had no trouble attracting the different species to feast off her arms and shoulders.


Next we enjoyed the Seal and sea lions show.



After the train ride, Shaelin wanted to go on the carousel with Robin . We couldn't tell who had more fun.

Thanks for inviting us. I'm going to forward your blog to Robin. She has that affect on all men. We had a great time.

What a fun day! Free flying birds in enclosed spaces have always creeped me out. Don't know if I would like that one. Guess I have a bird phobia.
