The 9th and final stop on Zoocation 2019 was the always enjoyable San Francisco Zoo. My good friend and Co-Director of Animal Care Dom Dorsa greeted us and spent quality time showing us all of the new things that are happening at the zoo. I have been coming to SF Zoo for the past 20 years and it feels like a very comfortable second home. Thanks Dom for spending time with us. We will be returning soon.
 My friend and photographer extraordinaire, Mary Schwalm has created a new desk calendar for 2019. Happy to report she has eliminated the plastic holder and it is now a self-contained earth friendly multi-purpose calendar. For a sneak peek and also information on how to order yours click here.
 Lastly, our two photo sessions are now ‘live’ on the Central Park Zoo’s website. The February session will feature Valentine animal enrichment fun. The spring session (spending on the arrival of spring) will feature seasonal animal enrichment. Sessions fill up quickly. Sign up here.

Last week’s trip to the west coast was filled with great weather, family fun and a few adventures. A west coast visit would not be complete without a stop at the San Francisco Zoo. There were lots of new animals to see (wolves, bears, sifakas) and improvements to many habitats. A shout out to Dominick, who always makes our visit better and more memorable.

Magellanic Penguin ChickWhen visiting my California family we always go to the San Francisco Zoo.  Last week’s visit was extra special because Bird Curator, Dominick Dorsa was our host.  He was amazingly generous with his time and gave my family some memorable extra special zoo access.  A big shout out to Dominick and the staff at the San Francisco Zoo.

GORILLAOn our recent trip to California we visited, as always, the terrific, San Francisco Zoo.  Unfortunately their new Sumatran tiger cub was not available for the public to see yet – but I do hope to see her when next we visit in June.  The weather was perfect and it was fun to see some new exhibits.
