After leaving the Gardens in Assiniboine Park, I headed over to visit the zoo. Some of the critters were very cooperative in providing a few photos for me to show you. Now, it was time to get out of the sun & heat, and to head for home.

The Move
Well, I have moved again. It is almost time to use No Fixed Address (NFA) to locate me – LOL. I went from living in my own home for over 30 years to 3 moves in the last 3 years. I started packing early for the move, since I would be away from home while… Continue reading The Move
Back at the Zoo
I spend quite a bit of time at the Assiniboine Park Zoo – both as a volunteer and sometimes just as a member on my own time. A couple of days ago, I had to be there for a meeting in the afternoon, so I decided to go a bit earlier with my camera. Inside Assiniboine… Continue reading Back at the Zoo
A Couple of Days
Late one afternoon a couple of days ago, some of the Whitetail Deer that are around my apartment building came and spent some time in the field outside my window. The young ones are hard to tell from the adults now, but it looks like the Moms are still a bit taller – although not… Continue reading A Couple of Days
Polar Bears
It was a chilly morning for a walk (-18C), but it was sunny and not much wind, so I headed over to the Assiniboine Park Zoo. Many of the critters enjoy the cold weather and are more active than they are during the summer, when it is more comfortable for us humans. I got pictures… Continue reading Polar Bears
Assiniboine Park Zoo – January
I am usually a fair-weather visitor to our zoo, but decided that it would be nice to see some of the critters out in the snow. After all, we have many critters that thrive in winter conditions and I hoped they wouldn’t all be sleeping as they often are in the summer. The temperature wasn’t… Continue reading Assiniboine Park Zoo – January
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… Continue reading Assiniboine Park Zoo – July
Back to the Zoo
On the day I spent at Assiniboine Park while waiting for my car maintenance, I also wandered over to the zoo.
Hudson the Polar Bear – Assiniboine Park Zoo
A new arrival at the Assiniboine Park Zoo is Hudson the Polar Bear. He is a young bear who will make his home here among the rescue Polar Bears that will be coming for rehabilitation and release once the Journey to Churchill is complete. I assume he will be kept separate, but will maybe be… Continue reading Hudson the Polar Bear – Assiniboine Park Zoo
Africam
You may have noticed that I list the sightings at Africam each day. 🙂 Now that the sightings around my home have pretty much disappeared, I will be posting some of the pictures from there as well as from the polar bear cam in Churchill. This morning the temperature here is -8C with a windchill… Continue reading Africam
