Zoo #3 on our summer zoocation was the Utica Zoo in Utica, New York.  A mid-afternoon arrival is never the best for a zoo visit but we did find some beautiful animals who perked up when they saw us.  Getting to the zoo along New York’s Blue Highways, rather than major roadways, was also a delight.

May is a glorious month.  The recent rains have made the Central Park Zoo‘s gardens even more spectacular.  Come visit and see our red pandas, snow leopards, sea lions, lemurs, white-naped cranes, amazing tropical rain forest, our two new baby goats, Marble and Mica and much, much more. Here is special salute to Scooter (and her pals, April and Clarisse) featured in my June, 2007 video of Central Park Zoo’s California sea lions.  We will all miss Scooter. She was a very special sea lion. If you subscribe to my weekly Sunday photos (and get them in your in-box) you are probably not able to view my videos from your inbox image.  Just scroll up and click on the Blue link (which is the name of today’s send) and it will take you back to my ‘While at the Zoo’ website where you can watch today’s video selection.

The Queens Zoo has a great collection of animals from ‘the Americas.’  Their newest arrivals are three Chacoan peccaries, forest mammals native to South America, named Walker, Palito, and Chili. You can also see the baby alpaca, named Cria, a little goat kid and a road runner.  Don’t forget to check out the bison, pronghorn, coyotes, bald eagles, lynx, puma and more.
