Toronto Zoo Revisited

"Dad, let's do something together this weekend," said my son Trevor.
"Let's go to the Zoo!" I replied. "Sure," said Trevor, "I haven't been in years."
And so, on a recent sunny Saturday morning, Trevor and I headed for the Toronto Zoo.  (I think he had a much better time than he anticipated!) Here are my favourite shots from the day...


Poopie is over 50 years old now; one of the oldest orangutan s in captivity
As if she knew I wanted a great shot, Poopie sat in the sun playing with a palm leaf

The Giraffes were indoors today

It's all happening at the Zoo: Simon gets down to play
 Having been a Zoo volunteer many years ago, I have a life membership. If I lived a little closer, I think I would volunteer again!
