Capital of Texas Zoo

This past weekend we headed to local Capital of Texas Zoo. I really like this particular zoo even if it wouldn't be considered among some of the more popular zoos. It's very "country" feel to it, but the reason I most like it is because it's more up front and personal - rather than standing back and admiring the animals you can interact with a few of these creatures.

I was highly annoyed with myself when I realized I had forgotten my digital camera so the pics that are posted are from my phone camera and are not as easy to view.

Summer enjoyed playing with the prairie dogs the most. They weren't shy and let her touch them..



Feeding the goats...



There was one little fella that was loose. He followed us all over jumping up on us for treats. He reminded me an awful lot of my dog....




The horse was cute too...



This bird was very chatty. Someone taught him well....



Another favorite was the bird cage. The quaker birds kept trying to bite our feet but the cockatiel was very sweet....




It was an enjoyable day for us all.
