Starting at the zoo

Thursday's I again will be at the zoo, not at the Bronx Zoo, but now I will reside at the Palm Beach Zoo.  I again will be a docent and am currently in training.  I will also be taking the animal handling course, which requires 3 months in the commissary, making animal food.  I was asked can I handle frozen rats and such, so this should be interesting. 

As one of the requirements for the docent course, I had to go see the animal shows at the zoo, they are excellent and my son Steven and his friend agreed.  We got to pet a little alligator, see a two toed sloth and  watch owls and other birds do tricks.


Haven't taken pictures at the Palm Beach Zoo,  so you will have to see more Bronx Zoo pictures, I have 5 years of that to show.
Currenrtly no pictures from the Palm Beach Zoo so here is a male peacock from the Bronx Zoo, they are the only animal allowed to roam freely throughout the zoo.

Male Sea Lion Kiani, at the Bronx Zoo, You can tell the males, they have that bump and their head and are much larger than the females
Flamingos, they have beautiful ones in NY during the summer.
