Going To (See) The Birds

Today we walked (against the suggestion of our hotel concierge) to the local zoo, Ardastra Gardens, where we enjoyed the company of some interesting wildlife. No, daddy. She doesn't mean you and mommy!


The birds were the highlight! First, there was the peacock (which you were too scared to approach, but daddy didn't give me a choice).


Then the Lory parrots, to whom we (by which I mean mommy and daddy, since we're too little) got to feed apples. Hey, save some for me!


Mommy sure knows how to get a-head!


And finally, the "National Bird of the Bahamas," the flamingo, who are trained to march on command. Their drill sergeant has been doing this here for fifty years!


They marched awfully close.


What, daddy? That wasn't close enough?


What a wild day!
