Evening ECB *sleepily yawns then waves*
Just arose from day of total rest as what I do for my Sabbath (then wonder why I can’t get to bed L8R!)
PG, tkss for trip to zoo, never been to one, no family outings for us, will stop there. Love the caracals, sooo cute, but not one’s pettable house kits I presume LOL. Also love the beautiful clouded leopard, her colouring and spots!!! And the giraffe and the pandas! And the “men/fruitcake/nuts” early C19 lady – LOL. I can’t tolerate those dyed red/green dried cherries that customarily find their way into fruitcakes, just thinking of them makes me want to to aack!
And tks ECB for “sharing” your field trip with us! When I read “fox squirrel” at first I thought of some inter-species goings on, but reading url am now better informed. 😉
When I was older I did go to our Biodome and saw like Amazon forest birds, penguins, bats, Canadian wildlife in created natural habitats, not quite the same as seeing wildlife outdoors, but interesting nonetheless. Would be nice if animals could remain in natural habitats, but with poaching and much unfluffiness going on at least this way threatened species can potentially be saved.
Speaking of interesting botany, “rumour has it” that in a certain park in Vancouver, BC, way the other side of Canada, there are “edible” mushrooms of the trippy sort – if one “knows their shrooms”. Sometimes encounter huge mushrooms growing naturally beside trees in my n’hood and wonder what would happen if I ate one. Probably not the “Alice in Wonderland” experience. And probably Dorry would miss me. Purrhaps. 😉
