The Central Park Zoo’s four sea lions – Scooter, April, Katie and Edith sure know how to leap, play, soar and move the crowds. Here are just a few of their acrobatics.
If you like my photos and enjoy taking pictures yourself, why not come to the zoo for one of my photo workshops this spring? We have scheduled three workshops and you can read all about them and sign up on line here.
– One is a family program scheduled for Earth Day (Sunday, April 22nd from 10:00 to 11:30)) and is geared to adults and kids (ages 6 to 18). Share the joy of wildlife and photography with the family. It will be fun and you can take the memories home through your photos.
– On April14th (8:30 to 11:30) we are repeating our popular Breakfast With the Birds adult class where you will have the chance to hear all about our amazing collection and then are able to photograph the birds during morning census. The class finishes up at the Apple store for a fabulous editing tutorial from the techies at Apple.
– And finally, a new workshop called Urban Birds of Prey on Sunday May 20th (9:00 to 11:00) where you will meet some of our raptor ambassadors up-close and personal. This will afford you great opportunities to photograph and learn about these beautiful birds. Looking forward to seeing some of you soon at the Zoo.

Zoos are a great place to see pairs of animals. This week’s photo montage is devoted to pairings of all sorts. Happy Valentine’s Day to all and enjoy the video below that cracked me up. For those that are not familiar with my little dog, that is Benny above – looking as cute as he possibly can be.

Splish splash they were takin’ a bath! The Central Park Zoo has a fabulous collection of waterfowl. But they are not the only ones that enjoy splish splashing at the zoo. Come visit!
My zoo-cation pal, Mary Schwalm has been in Indianapolis all week working for her newspaper, the Eagle Tribune, in North Andover, MA. She went to the Indianapolis Zoo to see if their residents had an opinion on today’s Super Bowl. She rigged it – but it was fun to watch. Go Giants!
