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.

Zoo #2 on our summer zoocation was The New York State Zoo at Thompson Park in Watertown, NY. Zoo news promised us wolf pups, so off we drove. We got a little peek at a few of them through cyclone fencing and deep wooded cover. I cannot say that I blame the little pups for taking naps — but we sure wanted to see them frolicking. Oh well – it was a nice small zoo with some active animals. Enjoy.

We had a real treat this week. We were invited by my friend, Marc Valitutto, to visit him at the Staten Island Zoo. Marc is their new General Curator and Veterinarian. He gave us a fabulous tour and shared some of the plans that he has for this 75 year old zoo. I look forward to visiting Marc often and watch as his plans come to light. If you look carefully, you will spot the zoo’s famous Staten Island Chuck, who gives Punxsutawney Phil a run for his money each Ground Hog Day. Not only was the zoo lots of fun, but we got to ride the Staten Island ferry and on the return trip and stopped to visit the beautiful 9/11 Memorial that is right near the ferry and well worth your time. There is a photo of this lovely spot on the bottom of today’s montage.

While at the Central Park Zoo do not forget to go upstairs in the Tropic Zone. It is a happening spot. Along with the always delightful Mountain Coatis (Lobo, Zev and Wolfie) you can also see African Banded and Dwarf Mongoose with four babies in each exhibit. Come quickly – they re growing rapidly. Also catch our new Saki Monkeys who reside with two Silvery Marmosets. Don’t forget to catch the magnificent Eurasian Eagle Owl too. If you want to see these photos larger go to here.
