Last weekend found us traveling south to the always enchanting, Philadelphia Zoo. They have had a delightful baby boom. We only got to see the adorable jaguar cub but that was plenty of cuteness for one trip. We will return soon. Check out my video of Baby girl Batu, born in October of 2009, at three months old. Her mother is called Tua and father is named Sugi.

Zoo #6 of our ‘Six Zoos in Six Days‘ zoo-cation was the Brookfield Zoo. It has over 216 acres of habitats with a lot of walking between exhibits. Did I mention how hot it was? Despite the heat we had a fine visit. They have one sensational interactive polar bear that kept our attention. Hope you enjoyed this six zoo-cation as much as we did. We are already planning our next adventure.

Zoo #3 of our ‘Six Zoos in Six Days’ zoo-cation was the fabulous Milwaukee Zoo. It was big, bright, welcoming and one heck of a zoo.

I continue my tradition of ending the year with a look from ‘behind’. It was a zoo-sational year for a zoo nut like me. Along with some of my like minded zoo pals we were able to visit new zoos and places around the country and thanks to many wonderful new friends get some amazing behind the scenes access. If you missed some of the visits, check out my photos from the Everglades, the Palm Beach Zoo, the Miami Metro Zoo, Flamingo Gardens, the Cleveland MetroParks Zoo, The Akron Zoo, The Toldedo Zoo, The Erie Zoo, The Pittsburgh Zoo and a personal favorite there, the Polar Bear Plunge, The Columbus Zoo, The Louisville Zoo, The Cincinnati Zoo and the best Insect House anywhere, The Newport Aquarium, Pittsburgh’s National Aviary, the always wonderful San Francisco Zoo, a very worthwhile VIP tour of Six Flags Wild Safari, Southwick’s Zoo, Whale and Dolphin watching, out of Gloucester, MA, the Cape May Zoo, the Raptor Trust, the Philadelphia Zoo, and of course home base, the Central Park Zoo where we all met the newest residents, the Mountain Coatis, Lobo, Lev and Wolfie . I am looking forward to new Zoo adventures in 2011. Don’t forget to watch Gus, the polar bear enjoying some snow in my video below.

We made a special trip to the Philadelphia Zoo to visit thirteen month old Baby Batu, the sweetest orangutan. We had seen this adorable baby when she was one month old and could not resist revisiting her as she begins to grow up. If you want to see these photos larger click here. Check out my photos from one year ago if you would like to see Baby Batu as an infant here.
Don’t forget to watch the 44 second video of Baby Batu that I took last week directly below this week’s photo montage.
