A Trip to the Zoo

Note: Click on the pictures to see enlarged versions!

Today my friend Danny and I went to the Indy Zoo to look at the animals. I brought along my camera and went crazy. The best are below!

The fish like to eat brocolli.
The Zoo currently has a special exhibit of seahorses. I managed to snap a picture of this one and was pleased with how it came out. The speed at which it moved combined with the fact that the flash reflected off the light made for a challenge.
This Bald Eagle looked like it was posing.
I must have taken 30 photographs in order to get this one that looks great. The dolphins moved rather quickly, and my camera has a huge delay between the time you press the button and the time it takes the picture, so I feel lucky that I got this one.
The plant looks like it is a part of this iguana.
I fed the giraffe at the zoo! It was way cool and it took its snack right out of my hands. We stuck around and watched a few kids give the giraffes food as well葉hey have incredibly long tongues.
I forget the name of this bird, but it posed and I took its picture.
Although in separate spaces, these two locked horns anyway.

Thanks for looking! I will try to improve the look and feel of the site with time!

Also: I found other recent photos of the Indy Zoo at Billy Bunny.

    Great piccies Adam! Has inspired me that I should go to the Zoo more often!

  • Chris C.

    AIEEE! I’ve been wiped off of Elmada.com. 🙂 I hope the photos from your previous world travels come back. I was especially fond of that one of myself next to the Cutty Sark in Greenwich. 😉

  • I’m glad people like the pictures!

    Chris, the old pictures are still there, in the Flash format. I have a link to old photo pages off of the main blog page, but not yet this one. This page needs a lot of tweeking still. I don’t like the current style and am going to kill it this afternoon — once i find a new one to replace it.

    Randomly, I would post your picture directly in the new blog, but I seem to have deleted, foolishly, the source files. I only have it in Flash now. 🙁 Foolish on my part.

  • Hi, I’m a friend of Ko’s…
    My boyfriend and I were at the zoo too on the 18th (assuming the date of your post was when you went), probably saw ya and didn’t even know it…I thought the seahorses were pretty cool myself!
