The Dallas Zoo - Feathers and Scales

There were those who soar and those who slither. And then there were those who flirt.

Among the birds at the zoo was the owner of this awesome pad, the stork.

And the beautiful, long-legged flamingoes.

Plump little penguins,

and Sam's favorite bird, the Bald Eagle!

In the Butterfly House!

This guy was trying to digest the meal he'd just devoured - ten whole mice! 

 (they're all sitting in that pouch there, underneath his throat)

And then there was this handsome bird - and old California Condor.  He's fifty-eight and loves to flirt!

Some scaly critters...

Mr. Boudreaux, showing off his choppers!

Peek-A-Boo!
