You certainly took some great photos. It's good to see those animals again.<br /><br />We are in CA for a few days and just visited the Hearst Castle which once had a zoo. I think some of the animals may be in the San Diego Zoo. Some of the zebras are living on the Hearst property roaming with the cattle!<br /><br />WF is boarcu;)Evelynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17824964122794535252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-74296977141514232322012-01-19T22:51:36.933+01:002012-01-19T22:51:36.933+01:00Great shots, as always.

They have the small red pandas, which I think are not on loan, but rather belong to the zoo. <br />The Paris zoo, in the Bois de Vincennes, in closed for renovation. All the animals have been sent elsewhere except the giraffes. I wonder if they're lonely, all alone, in their enclosure, with no other animals around making familiar noises.Ellen Lebellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01929639076042070115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-4195045317841048162012-01-19T19:11:13.984+01:002012-01-19T19:11:13.984+01:00What great pics.

We used to live near the San Diego Zoo, had a membership, and would walk over just for lunch and to visit one or two animals. What a pleasure.Moving with Mitchellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12954028272162285597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-784956496975661312012-01-19T17:40:23.490+01:002012-01-19T17:40:23.490+01:00That first little monkey looks so forlorn.That first little monkey looks so forlorn.Archguyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14335766004103620678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-28655676636171940562012-01-19T14:49:19.372+01:002012-01-19T14:49:19.372+01:00Fantastic photos, especially the first one.Fantastic photos, especially the first one.Carolynnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-59583284359188737212012-01-19T13:05:57.110+01:002012-01-19T13:05:57.110+01:00Heavens, those are fabulous photos, Ken!Heavens, those are fabulous photos, Ken!Seine Judeet (Judith)https://www.blogger.com/profile/07407353544376132484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-32778825969860518272012-01-19T12:15:34.782+01:002012-01-19T12:15:34.782+01:00Lovely photos.
