I promised great pictures but didn’t do a post yesterday. Well here’s why.
We went to the zoo, and it was too hot for most mammals.
We should have been sleeping too.
But we were on safari.
The heat didn’t bother the birds. The flamingos were struttin’ their stuff.

So was the East African crowned crane.
and the bustard.
This gigantic African bird seemed to be stretching out to rest.
The Abyssinian ground hornbill had no trouble.
The vulture was in his element.
These endangered beauties (Okapi) were keeping each other company and not moving much.
The graceful Southern Gerenuk was looking lovely in the sun.
And the giraffes were enjoying themselves.
The rhinoceroses knew how to cope.
Then the tiger started to wake up.
He gave us the idea to go home and have watermelon mojitos!

I know, aren’t they cute? Glad they are safely enclosed though because they aren’t pets.
