Pony Party Zoo Two

 Does anybody NOT like penguins? Come on I dare ya. These ones are South Africa and the keep mentioned that the weather yesterday ( high 30’s to 40 ) was about the lower limit of what they tolerate.

They have a little “keeper chat” everyday at 15:00 and the penguins know they will also get fed. A Cormorant also from South America and South Africa hangs out in their pool. I wouldn’t say he hung out with them but he did get fed.

I love how these turtles look like they are flying not swimming. They were very graceful…

Trumpeter Swan… They apparently mate for life and when I went to take their picture they came up and “trumpeted” at me quite a bit. I don’t know if they were saying: hey no paparazzi or come jump in the water with us…
