Found this little sparrow on a railing.
Wild great egrets are starting to nest over the alligator exhibit at the zoo.
Permanently injured eagles live at the zoo. This is the first time I've seen them this close together.
Mates.
Love was in the air at the lorikeet exhibit. They were all busy preening each other.

There's always something interesting to find at the Lowry Park Zoo. When my sister came to visit recently from South Dakota we spent an afternoon at the zoo. She was excited to be outside in the warm weather. It felt like spring. I was anxious to see if any of the blue herons were nesting over the alligator exhibit. There was no sign of them there but it's still a month or two early for them. There are a handful of great egrets nesting high up in the trees already. Last year blue herons filled the small palm trees along the exhibit with nests and by May there were baby blues everywhere. I'll check back in another month.
