Friday, June
24, 2016:
Mark and Paula visited the
Como Park Zoo and
Conservatory in the Twin Cities. |
|
 |
|
| They toured the
butterfly area with hundreds of the creatures. Mark found
that butterflies like to land on colorful blue clothing. |
|
 |
 |
| The butterflies
were in many different colors. A natural attraction for
photographers. |
|
 |
 |
| Butterflies everywhere.
They like bananas, oranges, and watermelon. Hmmm...must be
on a diet! |
|
 |
 |
| Then Mark and Paula cam across the
gorillas. Do you see a family resemblance between a gorilla and
Paula?? Gorillas range in weight between 200 and 500 pounds. The live up to 50 years. |
|
 |
|
| There was a trained seal
that loved to do tricks and eat fish. Trick, eat, trick, eat,
trick, eat...the audience and the seal loved it. |
|
 |
 |
|
Imagine that, giraffes in Minnesota.
They like to eat green leafy plants. |
|
 |
|
|
Snakes, huh! Well, you
can't pick your relatives, but you can pick your friends. |
|
Quote of the day:

Turtle in the Mist from a previous visit. Mark
