It's all happening at the Zoo

I went to San Francisco Zoo last weekend and that was a blast. The weather was outstanding, although abnormally warm for January. I did get some great photos of all kinds of animals. Merkats (pictured) are really fun to watch and photograph. They are so playful and curious.

The Zoo itself is quite large although, buy a lot of the old zoo areas are run down and cages empty. The newer areas are excellent and provide viewing on two levels. The Children's Zoo area was very good my favorite part being the Birds of Prey. I have never been that close to a Golden Eagle or Great Horned Owl. 

I think I will go to Oakland Zoo next.
