On June 1, hubby and I decided to visit the Baltimore Zoo, years ago we were members and went often. We walked 3.7 miles, it seemed like more because of the hills. We arrived in time to see the African Penguins being fed. They are numbered with tags, this way they make sure every Penguin is fed.
The zoo has a very nice Prairie Dog exhibit. There were some cute little baby Prairie Dogs.
I believe these are all birds seen in Africa, the Black-crowned Crane, Blue-bellied Roller, Von de Decken Hornbill, Saddle-billed Stork.
Below are images from the Africa exhibit, sharing the Elephant, Giraffes, Tortoise and Rhino. The giraffe laying down is the newest addition named Willow and is now 3 months old.
The children's zoo has a barn and various buildings that hold the farm animals like sheep, a hog, the donkeys, alpacas and some chickens.
For Toms Barn Collective, a barn at the Baltimore Zoo, the children's section.
Some of our native North American birds, Black-crowned Night herons, Cattle Egret, Green Heron, Ruddy Ducks, Wood Duck, Tundra Swans, Sandhill Crane, Little Blue Heron, Black-crowned Night Herons on nest.

I hope you enjoyed my Baltimore Zoo critters and birds.

Thank you for hosting, Eileen. These are fun photos from the zoo. I adore the prairie dog!
Wishing you a wonderful July 4th.
Nice penguins. We have wild penguins along the coast here but they are usually only active at night so it's hard to film them.
SNAP Eileen We aare both featuring Zoo's today so it was wonderful to see all the critters you saw. lovely shots and collages. Thanks for hosting so have a wonderful weekend.
Hello Eileen,
This is great!! Amazing shots.
Wonderful all these animals and so funny that prairie dog.
Greetings, Marco
Great set of photos Eileen, love the Penguins, it must be some size zoo.
Take care, Goprdon.
Hello Eileen!:) What a delightful post you share today. I am spellbound by all the lovely critter photos. I Love your baby Prairie Dog capture and all the birds seen in Africa, especially the Black-crowned Crane, and the Saddle-billed Stork,...it even has a little red heart on it's breast,..how cool is that!! Great shots of your north American birds, the African and farm critters and the cute penguins. Stupendous, all of them!:)
Hello Eileen,
Beautiful collages made you.
All perfectly photographed.
Best regards, Irma

Oh yes that is quite the eclectic range of critters this week! Happy Holiday W/End to you and hubby!!! YAM xx
Thanks again for sharing these wonderful critters that you've captured, especially the birds that I like most. Thanks too for another week of hosting! Best regards!
A trip to the zoo! Fun!
Have a great week-end!
Good morning Eileen! Wonderful elephant photos, and penguins have long been a favorite. The new England Aquarium in Boston also has a great penguin exhibit. That's another place I'd like to visit again. Sorry my link has so much Door County before getting to the critters. I hope you have a lovely weekend.
Hello Eileen
Quite collection if lovely birds and critters at this zoo!
thanks for sharing them with us :)
Keep well and enjoy your weekend!
You got your exercise at the zoo. The Africa exhibit was particularly interesting.
i am so in love with those penguins and the alpaca too - which i noticed immediately. a fun day, awesome captures!!!
happy saturday eileen, many thanks for hosting all us critter lovers!!!
Hi Eileen, I loved the Prairie dog. And I love all the other critters. I recognize the African ones. Thanks for hosting this meme. Have a great day. Jo
Good day Eileen,
Always great to see zoo photos. Those penguins can put a smile on my face all the time. Maybe I need a trip to a zoo. Haven't been to one in ages. Enjoy your day!
A nice set of photos Eleeen. It would be good to see all of these birds and animals in the wild but of course that is not possible for most people. Zoos are good educational tools.
Have a lovely week ahead.
Baltimore has a wonderful zoo and you have taken some great shots of the critters, Eileen! Thanks for hosting and have a great week.
I love all of these animal antics photos. Fantastic. Carol
Not really a big fan of zoos but I did enjoy seeing all the animals. My favorites are from the Africa exhibit.
Love the photos!
Happy 4th of July Weekend to you, Eileen!
The critters in this post are all adorable.
It is not often that one sees a Prairie Dog on a post.
Loved it!
Thanks for hosting.
Peace :)
What a fantastic time, Eileen, so much to see, and you captured everything beautifully! Gorgeous series! Happy weekend to you!
Beautiful critter photos! Lovely indeed.
Happy weekend.
Beautiful critters. Very nice variety.
Hello,
Beautiful photos and animals! The baby praerie dog is so cute.
Happy Weekend!
When there's a good zoo, with adequate habitat, I love to visit! This looks like a good one! I always enjoy the prairie dogs so much, and the elephants...and all the animals! :-) Great post, Eileen. Hope you are doing great this summer!
Thank you for the trip to your local Zoo. It looks like you had an enjoyable time and the birds and other critters are wonderful. The baby Prairie Dog is way too sweet and they remind me a little bit of our Groundhogs down the lane. Happy Fourth of July weekend, stay safe and thank you for all that you do~
I particularly like the baby Prairie Dogs, Eileen! I've got a pic lined up for next Saturday! ;-)
What a wonderful way to see lots of neat critters...and get your exercise too! It's been a long time since we went to the zoo. Makes me want to go! Happy weekend! Hugs, Diane
Fantastic photos!
Happy weekend!:)

Beautiful images Eileen, they are tremendous.
Lindas e tão diferentes fotos!Adorei! bjs, tudo de bom,chica Vale ver e rever!
I have never seen a penquin and only seen one prairie dog, at Jungle gardens. they sure have a lot of interesting critters at this zoo
That is a nice zoo! I love the prairie dogs !
Looks like Baltimore has a lovely zoo.
We haven't been to Jacksonville Zoo yet. I think we will probably wait until the weather cools off a bit.
Love those cute little prairie dogs the most though it was so hot here yesterday I would have dearly loved to be IN there with the penguins.
I enjoyed your collection of great pictures very much! Thank you for hosting.
Love the penguins! I always see Prairie dogs when I'm visiting family in South Dakota.
Wonderful animal photography ~ love the penguins ~ DO NOT like zoos ~ sorry ~
Thank you for visiting and commenting on my blog ~ ^_^
Thank you for this tour of the zoo with you.
Blessed be the days ahead.
From cute to huge all great photos.

Great critters at the zoo! It's been awhile since I've visited the zoo but I see a zoo day in the future. Happy long 4th weekend to you!
Loved the post. Thanks for sharing lovely pics.
Greetings
A great day at the zoo to be sure. I would have particularly enjoyed the penguin exhibit. I have very fond memories of time spent with African Penguins at Boulder Beach, South Africa nine years ago. Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
Those penquins are just so, so cute, and I love the prairie dogs..
oh Penguins! love them! when we lived up north we sometimes saw little blue NZ ones swimming in the surf.
Now these a different batch of creatures. Fun!
I love your photos at the zoo, Eileen !!
How nice to see all these exotic critters !!
Happy weekend !
Absolutely wonderful capture on the various birds and animals! I am sure the zoo authorities taking care of their needs well. The prairies dogs look cute and should be fun watching them… really great collection of photos from the zoo.
I enjoyed walking around the zoo with you this morning. The prairie dogs are adorable. Have a blessed Sunday!
Hi Eileen,
marvelous photos of the penguin and all the other animals. So beautiful and amazing !
Have a great Sunday, Eileen.
Best regards, Synnöve
Another couple of Australian birds for you, Eileen.
Lovely. Prairie Dogs...America's Meerkats
It's felt like a zoo here, so much going on. But no new animal posts. I have an update on my robins, though!
Sounds like an exercise jaunt to me!
3 1/2 miles . . . , how many hours?
Quite a large collection and variety!
I'm late getting to visit with you, holiday company from Colorado, but want to wish you a happy week ahead and thank you for joining us birders at I'd Rather B Birdin', Eileen.
That's a lot of walking but certainly looks worth it from your photos. That prairie dog shot is a really good one, you can see the detail in its fur. I almost went to the zoo today but too hot and drove right past it to lounge around the square to be a lazy photographer.
Hope you had a good visit at zoo.
Coffee is on
The setting for that barn is so nice, Eileen. That's a nice addition to a zoo! Beautiful birds, too. Love the collage.
I've always liked penguins.
Lovely mix of critters in your post.
All the best Jan
Wonderful shots! It's been a long while since I've been to a zoo.
Good evening Eileen, I love all of these critters, and the penguins are always the sweetest to watch. Our Minnesota Zoo has some really enjoyable ones and children and adults crowd around them all day long. It's time for me to get back to our Zoo again. Thanks for sharing such a fun day out.
