Every day I order the steak…

But all I ever get is fruits and vegetables…

I am going to complain to the management…

Or maybe I will just eat some bugs…

Whatever, man…

HA! See what I did there? Oh man… I kill me…

Wheeeeeeeee………..

I like flowers… it is the artist in me… and when I was at the zoo with little Olivia, I saw this flower. These flowers are all over San Diego, but, until I saw a few of these planted close together, I never realized there were so many colors of that one type of flower…

I mean, the pink and yellow and red one is awesome…

But so is purple and red…

Or just yellow…

They all have their own beauty!

He was totally jealous…

He was actually pacing back and forth at the top of the enclosure, smelling the fence. It turns out that he has a brother, and the zoo has been separating them for part of the day, to get used to the fact that they will soon be kept apart permanently.

His brother was on the other side of the fence, also pacing and sniffing… it was sad… but cute…

And speaking of cute…

It is a rare treat to see this cat outside during the day.

It is some kind of jungle fishing cat, but I can’t remember where it is from. It looks like a house cat, but it is larger by a third… wait… did I just do math?

Even the tiger is amazed…

Oh yeah… tiger face!!!

And because I love Olivia… I take her to the zoo…

And because I love you…

I take the camera and the zoom lens with us to the zoo…

It is all about the love…

And animals are just cool…

Who doesn’t like animals? I mean, besides Donald Trump’s obnoxious kids… who spend all their free time shooting them…

But why ruin the mood talking about that guy… besides, if he gets elected, we can forget any meaningful dialog on climate change, so we will all drown… along with all these animals… which should make his kids happy…

Seriously… how did I end up talking about that guy?

What a mood killer…

Wait… how do you eat with crossed tusks???

I don’t think he is going to mind… he still sends me tweets now and then… and he did get me permission to use all those Monty Python quotes for that alien in my sci-fi novel series that learned how to speak English watching BBC reruns of that famous comedy show…

It started when I spotted this photo on Twitter…

And I tried to be tasteful about it… at first…

But then, the pain meds in my body interacted with the crack squirrels in my head…

And then… things just got weird…

No!

I didn’t say ‘shake it all about’ yet!!!

Wait… which foot are we putting in first?

Oh wow… cool nests… I wonder what kind of cute little birds built those?

Great… devil birds…

This is not going to end well…

Nope…

Good idea, Olivia… give them the ‘squishy face’!!! Ha! I love taking my little babysitting buddy to the zoo!
