Assiniboine Park Zoo – July

Yesterday I went to the Assiniboine Park Zoo, to put on some miles on my FitBit and to check up on the critters.  I didn’t take a lot of pictures and most of the ones I did take were different than my usual ones – except that I got one of a Polar Bear playing in the water. There were 2 bears playing, but movement was quick and the bright sun was shining above, so pictures didn’t turn out great.

There were lots of butterflies yesterday – but most were very uncooperative about posing for the camera.  I was actually trying to get some flying in most of the flower pictures, but they always managed to fly outside the picture just as I snapped.  It was just one of those days.

    1. Thanks Sue. The zoo still has lots to do – but the Journey to Churchill exhibit is first class. The northern critters (Polar Bears, Muskox, and Wolves (for now) have lots of space and no visible barriers except the glass viewing areas. The butterfly exhibit is also great.
