6389The Central Park Zoo has been my home base for the past 25 years.  I never tire of the collection of beautiful animals, the landscape, the NYC backdrop, or the variety of visitors, happy faces and delighted children. Today’s montage features just a small sampling of the collection.  Imagine if you will, some of these animals surrounded by carved pumpkins, filled with fun enrichment, during my Fall photo workshop on October 25th from 8:30 to 10:30. To register for the fun, sign up here.CPZSEPT15

HIGH FIVEOur recent string of glorious, dry, summer weather has brought big crowds of animal lovers to the Central Park Zoo. Come join the fun and bring your camera. There is so much to photograph. Speaking of cameras, the Central Park Zoo’s Education Programs for fall and winter is now available on the zoo’s website.  Two photo workshops are being offered.  Check them out here under ‘adult programs. Hope to see you there.SUMSUM

Grizzly BearYes, it is still chilly in NYC but spring has definitely sprung with magnolias, forsythia, blue bells, hellebores, budding crab apples, cherry blossoms and more.  The Central Park Zoo sheep have been sheared, the school groups enjoy the zoo on their outings and in general – it is good to be alive.

We embark on our Texas 2015 Zoocation next week. Looking forward to six new zoos and an aquarium and hopefully meeting new friends along the way.AHSPRING

BETTY BEARThe Central Park Zoo’s newest residents, grizzly bears Betty and Veronica, have settled in nicely to their new home.  After a long cold winter they have truly begun to enjoy their streams, ponds and pools and can be seen bathing throughout the day. Come visit!BV

BettyAs most of you know, on the first day of spring we got four inches of snow in the Big Apple.  I thought it was a good time to share some of the last snowy day zoo photos for awhile (I hope).LASTGASP

MALALAI love snow days.  We did not get the predicted amount of snow but we got enough to allow the Central Park Zoo animals to really enjoy themselves.  (Me too). Here’s a a fun trip down memory lane.  Zoe, at three years old, enjoyed her first snow at the Central Park Zoo on December 20, 2009.
