Reece and I had the most wonderful day at Brookgreen Gardens on Friday. I was not prepared for the awesomeness of this wonderful place and will share more with you tomorrow.
Our first stop when we arrived was the zoo. We walked the entire zoo and saw every animal except the alligator. As we headed back to the car Reece asked if we could go and see the foxes just "one more" time. I obliged and away we went. We had to pass the alligators on the way to the fox den and this old guy decided to come out and say hello.
It was amazing to find him hiding in the tall grasses. We stood and watched him for a while. Then we noticed a little movement and he started to make his way, ever so slowly, out of the grass. He ended up on the grass, where he relaxed, closed his eyes and enjoyed the glorious sun shining down from above.
what a fantastic shot! Sounds like a really great zoo.
ReplyDeleteThanks, it was so very cool!
DeleteHow exciting! It was worth the trip back into the zoo!
ReplyDelete...gooood gravy.
ReplyDeleteHa!
DeleteVery cool! They always seem so ancient to me.
ReplyDeleteThey do to me too. This guy is actually 65 years old, he moved very slowly.
DeleteOh wow, what a treat!
ReplyDeleteWe were pretty lucky :)
DeleteThat would freak me out, but is still really awesome! :)
ReplyDeleteHe was behind a fence, so we were safe :)
DeleteEEK! What an amazing sighting. At my grandparents house we used to be able to seem them in the canal down the street. Manatees too. What a wonderful sighting.
ReplyDeleteIt was very cool. Reece loved it!
DeleteYikes! Those are great shots!
ReplyDeleteThanks Melissa :)
