Saturday's Critters # 185

Welcome to Saturday's Critters!

If you love critters like I do and also like to blog about them and take critter photos this is where you can share your critter post. Link up your post and share your critters, join in with my critter party ! You can share any kind of critters the real ones, pretend ones, statues and paintings, a new or old post!

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.

Saturday's Critter's #48

Saturday's Critter's #48


Happy weekend everyone!

I am looking forward to seeing everyone's critters..I appreciate everyone who has linked up in the past and for those who are linking in on this week's critter party. And of course I always appreciate my blogging friends stopping by just for a visit..

I am taking you all back to Colorado with this post, hubby and I visited the Rocky Mountain Arsenal NWR located just northeast of Denver.. I try to make a point in visiting any closeby wildlife refuges during our trips..




I had to laugh at this Great Blue Heron. It was not happy that a Black-billed Magpie joined him on this tree.



This heron seem more at peace on it's own little island in the pond.. I will do another post with more birds seen at this wildlife refuge..



Bison were introduced to the refuge in 2007. We only saw a few bison on the day of our visit. 



 The wildlife refuge is also known for its Prairie Dogs. This was my first time seeing Prairie Dogs in the wild.. They are cute.


 Driving on the wildlife drive we noticed quite a few areas with the Prairie Dogs..


Another critter from the refuge....this is either a Mule Deer or the White-tailed deer. Both deer species are found on the wildlife refuge. I hope you enjoyed my critter post and photos..


Thanks to Tex Theresa aka Tex, I was able to add this link up button and thanks to  Jennifer for creating my photo badge.








As always I thank you in advance for stopping by and for the nice comments. I am sorry, I am not able to send everyone thank you emails for your comments. Since I am working full time, life  and blogging takes up a lot of time lately.

Thank you for linking up to the critter party. I also appreciate the visits, comments and the support of my blogging friends................... Have a happy weekend!
