The running joke here is that I have never seen a bear in the wild. I am the bear anti-magnet. Just about every time we've gone camping, there has been a bear siting just after I've left the area. However, this time, at the Greater Vancouver Zoo, I was able to get as close as I'd ever want to - with the windows of the bus between me and him.
Spring has sprung. There are colours every place you look!
What an incredible stare this owl has! A very regal bird!
Again, about as close as I'd ever want to get to such an animal. Her name is 'Sweetie' and apparently that's her nature too. We'll just trust the trainer on that but I won't test it out.
