NC Zoo

These are my boys last week at the zoo. It was the first time #4 and #5 had been to a zoo. The NC Zoo is a good one to be a first, since it is so large and the animals are in their "own habitats" so to speak. I will post more pictures in the next few days, but I thought I would start with the giraffes.

There is a deck to walk out on, and the zoo keepers happened to be there feeding some leaves to the giraffes. We were able to feed them, too. The kids held twigs of leaves through the deck fencing slats, and the giraffe grabbed the leaves with her tongue.

All of the boys were able to try it, and seemed pretty pleased with themselves. This particular giraffe is about one and a half years old.
