Maggie: hiking at the zoo

I'm afraid I was a bit shutter-happy during our walk through the Montpellier zoo, but the birdies and the beasties were just so photogenic that I could not resist.

I'm tempted to compare the photos with ones taken in Kenya many years ago, when I actually touched a white rhino, and the marabouts shared the garden with us during lunch at a hotel in one of the game parks.
