We saw several peacocks and peahens and boy were they noisy today. This guy let loose with a call and gave Ethan a scare. He wasn't too sure about them the rest of the time we were there.
We were able to get real close to this little Eastern Screech-owl. There were several others inside the cage. He didn't do any screeching for us though.
We saw this lovable Angora bunny and he didn't even mind being petted by an 18 month old.
We saw camels, monkeys, parrots, lemurs,zebras, chickens, cheetahs, and other animals but the most fun was in the petting zoo with the goats.
Of course the goats are always looking for a handout and they aren't bashful about it either!
Ethan wasn't afraid of the goats and enjoyed feeding them. Here he has a few goats vying for his attention....well, actually his food.
And then they invited a few more friends and a party broke out!
They ate all the feed we had, twice, and then this little guy decided to have a little of Evan's shirt for dessert! As soon as we walked into the pen one of them grabbed my shoelace and untied my shoe! They thought our pants were quite tasty too as several of them tried a nibble or two.
After the zoo we headed to the playground and Ethan had himself a grand old time. He did some swinging and lots of climbing on things and in things. He loves the tunnels if you couldn't tell.
After clearing the tunnel you have to go down the slide that follows it and that's lots of fun.
Of course we have to stop and do a little driving!
While climbing through another tunnel I tapped on one of the holes and he popped his little face out. How cute!
He had to have a little assistance getting up the rock wall but he scrambled up it fairly quickly.
He got to come down this tunnel slide by himself. The look on his face is priceless! Pure joy! Of course he had to do this slide a couple more times.
Since he had done some practice driving earlier today, Ethan told Grandpa he would drive home.
