Sundays in My City


The Bronx Zoo

this is where we were last Sunday
the last sun day
before
snowmageddon
snowpocalypse
a week of snow days

it was a beautiful day
prompting an impromptu trip



a sun day sky



1st stop
the World of Birds



you know I have a thing



bird on a branch



...light... sun...
...green... warmth...



we pretend it's summer



we're in Madagascar
lemurs sound just like they do in Dinosaur


tigers up close and personal
we never see them in the summer
it's too darn hot so they hide in the shade

apparently, they love the snow
a big beautiful cat
Mia just wanted to snuggle with her



zoo center



me and my shadow

  2. The light shining through that greenhouse rooftop looks so cozy and warm. I think I just might move in.

    That shadow picture warms me up too.

  4. That tiger is just outstanding. I wonder what it thinks of its life in the city?

  5. The St Louis Zoo (Which is free ..well kinda, St Louis County Tax Payers pays taxes for the zoo, but it's free....sort of).....Anyway, the St. Louis Zoo has a bird house. One of the birds got out of the cage and ran Kevin and I out of the place. It puffed its feathers up really puffy, stood up tall on its legs and opened its wings and squawked at us something fierce. I remember running out of that place thinking "Where Is Security!!"

so... wadaya think?

Your fairy is called Columbine Icedancer
She is a bone chilling bringer of justice for the vulnerable.
She lives in mushroom fields and quiet meadows.
She is only seen when the bees swarm and the crickets chirrup.
She wears lilac and purple like columbine flowers. She has icy blue butterfly wings.
