Hogle Zoo Day

I broke down and bought Zoo passes for the family this year. Only after I bought them did I find out that half the Zoo is under construction! Oh well. We need things to do around here and this the Zoo is fun to go to with our cousins. We saw bats...

We sure do...




Turkey's just roaming the grounds. And yes, still snow in March. It isn't Spring in Utah without spring snow showers and ice ponds!

And peacocks too...

Gavin sure loves his little buddy Hudson. He was giving free piggy rides.

Love this sign!

At the Hogle Zoo, they feed their giraffe's Christmas trees! The kids sure got a hoot outta that!




The tigers had a few Christmas trees near their beds too...



This gorilla was walking around his enclosure and then when we came in the walked straight up to Bear and just sat like this staring at him. There were lots of people inside but he was content taking in Bear. And he loved it!

Gotta love the Christmas trees in the elephant enclosures too. What is up with that?


And of course the water ball of fun.

We really need to check out our zoo here. We usually get a pass wherever we are. So funny about all the christmas trees everywhere!
