Yes, it is finally here. Spring has sprung – our little lamb is leaping, the ducks are flapping, the monkeys are flying, the swans are whooping and the sea lions are soaring. Come visit!

This annual rite of spring took place yesterday at the Central Park Zoo. For many urban dwellers the sight of sheep being shorn was a first time experience. Our six day old lamb only added to the fun. A shout out to Pete Sepe of Sepe Farms for his annual visit, education and fun. Come visit us and see our freshly shorn flock at the Tisch Children’s Zoo.

After weeks of snow and ice I decided to spend a little quality time in the Central Park Zoo’s Tropic Zone. It was just what the doctor ordered. It is warm, colorful, and filled with wonderful sounds and calls. If you like today’s montage how about signing up for my next Central Park Zoo Photography Workshop on Sunday, March 9, from 8:30 to 10:30. Experience breakfast and a photo shoot with our Tropical Birds and maybe we will be lucky and there will still be some opportunities for snow photos too.

The winter presses on – with over 56 inches of snow in NYC in 2014. I am not sure how many more Sunday montage titles I can use – maybe Snowmageddon is next. The Central Park Zoo animals (especially the snow leopards, snow monkeys and red pandas) are my snow muses. Also watch a lovely video that my friend and Zoo Guide Wendy Walters made of our adorable cubs as they romped in the snow. A shout out to Wendy for deleting the sound of my clicking camera while she was filming.

New York City’s snowfall in 2013 amounted to 27 inches. It is only February and we have already tracked 40 inches with more snow coming later today. SNOWPOCALYPSE!

As you all know – January was bitterly cold. The Central Park Zoo became a month long winter wonderland – and the forecast predicts more to come.

Leaping leopards, flying monkeys, soaring sea lions and bounding babies are a joy to see at the Central Park Zoo. It is even better when you can capture that moment with your camera. Today’s montage is all about those special moments.

I was not planning to go to the zoo on Friday’s very cold day but the lure of freshly fallen snow and the thought of snow leopard cubs frolicking in the snow was too much for me to resist. Enjoy their antics as well as some other familiar zoo faces in the beautiful fresh snow. If you haven’t come to see these seven month old cubs yet – now is the perfect time to catch them in all of their kitten-like friskiness.

We did not get much snow earlier this week but we got enough for some fun snow photos of the zoo residents (especially the snow leopard twins) enjoying their first snow of the season. My own kittens, Audrey and Roberta, enjoyed watching their first snowfall too. Check out the video below today’s photo montage.
