Someone Told Me It's All Happening At The Zoo...

The Bronx Zoo...it's always there, just north of Manhattan, just a half hour subway ride away. And yet I'd never gone. That is, until Sunday morning, when I woke everyone at the crack of dawn (7:00 a.m.) so that we could be there when the gates opened. I'm all about making good time.

For the first two hours it was mostly toddlers scurrying about the place. After all, only people with toddlers would be awake that early on a Sunday.

Here are some of the highlights. You can see all the photos that I took on the Flickr page.

Moose Are The Angry Postal Workers Of The Animal Kingdom

moar funny pictures

I was once told by an avid outdoorsman that moose are the angry postal workers of the animal kingdom. I was told that if I was ever in one's line of sight, to run, otherwise I would be a goner.

I didn't realize moose were this big. It makes Bullwinkle (of Rocky & Bullwinkle) look shrimpy.
