Last weekend, as a last hoo-rah before starting my second year of school, Jesse and I went to the Birmingham Zoo. (What to do? What to do? Go to the zoo! - Just for you, Andi!) It's been on our to-do list for a while now, and we just haven't gone. Thankfully, they were doing a summer promotion and admission was only $5 per person! It was a little overcast with rain on the forecast, but that didn't stop us, or the other hundred or so people that were there. We took our time strolling through each exhibit, making sure we didn't miss anything along the map. Here's a little of what we saw:
Inside the Butterfly House
This guy was fun to watch eat all the little leaves off of twigs.
There were elephants behind us. Random man that took our picture didn't think they were important for the shot, apparently. Gotta take what you can get. ;)
A sea lion show! It's amazing how well-trained these animals can be!
The lorikeet exhibit was awesome. You get to walk inside of it with cups of food/nectar, and the birds just fly around and land on you, or walk onto your arm to see if you have any food left. They were beautiful!
