Everyone loves the zoo... whether you are 3 years old or 99! I have a number of images to share with you from a couple trips we made to zoos this spring.

Please feel free to add your images and stories as well!

This is Luke... male African Lion at National Zoo. He is the king of the jungle and the king of his world! He has two lovely ladies in his pride, and is expected to be a first-time Dad by early September.

Who doesn't love the preacocks? I think I may have shared this one already. She just looked as though she was saying, "I don't know ladies... what do you think?"
