Some more shots from the Weekend

Ok, so by request I waited around for hours and hours to catch a good GIF shot (Gorillas in flight). Turns out it was a wild goose chase:

So I thought, hey, maybe see what else was happening at the zoo, but after recent events I thought ok, maybe try to challenge myself even further. Since the bird feeders I put in the front yard seemed to be working so well, I decided to put a tiger feeder in the backyard. Strangely enough Walmart doesn't carry them. So I had to build one myself. Waited around all weekend, nothing. Not one tiger. Was pretty bummed really until I opened the garage door and found this:

In other news the neighbors got this waterfall pond thingy in their backyard which they just finished building, and then they ran out and got a new puppy:

It's a really big dog. Seems friendly enough - and strangely enough our postman has gone missing. Not all happiness in paradise though, needless to say the neighbors cat was less than impressed:

Beauty! Love the jaguar (leopard?). Amazing.

I'm headed to the zoo this Sunday, probably to disappoint myself.

It's a jaguar. A leopard wouldn't fit in the garage:



Lol

They are a little weird, I must admit. Not bad people though, once you get to know them. I just hope they can keep their dog from pooping in my yard.. because, wow.. lol

Thanks guys, had a great weekend. It's gotten to the point where I don't even remember what I used to do for fun before I picked up a camera.

Yup.. Henry Doorly. I'm hoping to plan a couple of trips to nearby zoo's this summer if time permits, take a couple of weekend trips. Kansas City and St. Louis are both on my list of possibles, from what I've heard Des Moines was not recommend by several local residents I talked to this weekend.. lol.

Sounds like fun, though it doesn't get much better than Omaha. That zoo is a gold mine. One of my gorillas, from one fan to another:
