OK here are the next two zoo pages. The lorikeets were fun and very colorful. Jessica was bold enough to feed them and at one time she had four of them fighting for food. They are engaging little birds and a treat to watch. The keepers are concerned about hygiene so they make you wash your hands before entering the aviary and after leaving.
The two polar bears are brother and sister. They have two different enclosures but they are connected so they have a choice of where they want to be. When we first saw them the male was swimming laps on one side and his sister was pacing in the bigger pen. Eventually the male came over to her pen and they ended up in the water together. He goofed around with her and she played for a bit but eventually she got tired of him and even though she is much smaller she chased him back into the other enclosure. Watching them interact was the highlight of my day.
For your viewing pleasure I've included a video Jamie shot of the male while he was swimming laps.
