Oregon Zoo

Today we bundled up in our rain gear and headed to the zoo. It is a fairly good size zoo with lots of animals to see. We were deciding on the zoo or the aquarium. Until we looked up the Portland Aquarium...it may be called the Portland Aquarium...but it isn't in Portland, it's an hour away. So off to the Oregon Zoo we went.

Measuring up to the Bald Eagle.

In the zoo thay have a small farm area with goats and cows and pigs and obviously a tractor

Mr. Blue Eyes not pulling a crazy face.

Keegan and Josh riding wooden horses in the farm area.

We were really excited to see this. We walked up to the viewing area and here was this beautiful wolf standing and almost posing for us. I think what made this exciting is that at the Hogle Zoo in Ut you never get to see the wolves. They are always hiding in their very wooded area. And then in Albuquerque they had some mexican wolves or Lobos and I never saw them either.

This is just to show how wooded the zoo is. Here is the bathroom Keegan had to use, it looks like it is an out house in a campsite. Soooo many trees.

The wolf again.

Sleepy polar bears. They didn't do much, he did open his eyes once but that is the most movement we got out of these 2.

Here is Keegan seeing how he measures up to all the different kinds of bears.

Here were the elephants, they have a baby. It was so much fun to watch him. They had water running into the pond. I shouldn't say running, it was like a fire hose shooting full force. But it didn't matter, this little guy loved it.

We watched him play for quite a long time.

And one of the last animals that we saw was who Keegan was sure was named "Mufasa" he loves the Lion King these days.
