In light of the last several posts...
...I felt the need to lighten up my world a bit.
In early January I spent a lovely day with my niece and her family at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park.
There were many species of birds to see and enjoy.
Here are some photos of a few of the slower ones.
This guy walked right up to my feet...
...looking for a handout no doubt.
I got a kick out of the legs on this dude.
They looked like they were hand-drawn under its body by a pre-schooler with a gray crayon.
Nice birdie...
...gives new meaning to taking a flight with only a "carry on".
(ahem)
This little guy looks a bit 'owly'.
Guess I can't blame him - except that he was injured and was fenced in for his own protection.
He doesn't look convinced.
This is the Lorikeet.
If you dare - you can enter its enclosure with a cup of 'nectar'.
This is equivalent to waving cocaine under an addict's nose. This is not for the faint of heart.
Excuse me....Did I say birds that were slower?
...Except of course for this amazing little hummingbird! This photo was a gift...a lucky shot.
Aaahhh... Lightening up feels good.
