Partly cloudy with a chance of lions

First things first, Happy Birthday Uncle Mike!

I took Laney to the zoo on Saturday. Apparently cold & cloudy makes for a great zoo day. The crowds were down & the animals were up. The pacing tiger:
The lazy lions - but, hey!, their heads are up. They're usually sound asleep.
Laney checking out some birds.

We rode the carousel, one of the advantages to the zoo membership is half price carousel tickets.
Checking out the giraffes - including the new one-month old:

The meerkats were in the mood to pose:

Laney's favorite animal was the "seal lion" which translates to "sea lion" in grown up speak. It took three trips to their pool to see them. They were very playful, but by that point I had put the camera away for the day.
