This was our second visit to the zoo and we had a lot of fun! Ethan and I rode on the carousel! Yay! Ethan rode on a clouded leopard cub that went up and down and as Ethan did not cry or otherwise freak out, it was a success in my book!
Here is Ethan taking in the sights from a new height.
Ethan was having a great day at the zoo. While we were in the Perching Bird and Reptile House, he started crying however, but then I heard what I thought was another baby crying as well, but it was really a Trumpeter Hornbill Bird that was communicating with Ethan! We were right by their enclosure and the bird had gotten as close to us as he could and was looking at Ethan.
Want to know what they sound like? Here is a link:

Go towards the bottom of the page. Ethan's friend sounded like this, but only more so like a baby crying.
Ethan really enjoyed seeing the birds and the camels.
"Dr. Doolittle" also made some more friends at the zoo.... Here is a little chipmunk peeking up to say "howdy!"
We also enjoyed lunch on the grass and Ethan's seagull friend wanted to dine with us, but he wasn't happy with our food selection, so he didn't hang around long.
