I went to the Pittsburgh Zoo & Aquarium again yesterday. I usually go at least once or twice a year, because I love animals and going to the zoo is fun! They recently opened a new exhibit, where you can walk through a glass tunnel, under the sharks, polar bears, sea otters, and things like that. If any of you happen to visit the Pittsburgh area and want to go to the zoo, then let me know. I love going to the zoo!
I have posted a few of the pictures that I took, in my Myspace picture album. It should be viewable to everyone.
Here are a couple of "preview" pictures.

We definitely lucked out on the weather that day! It was warm and sunny, which is pretty rare for Pittsburgh! LOL

ommggg the elephants are soo cute!!!
I never went to the zoo when I was pittsburgh for months at a time...I should of. :(
GuardianAngel
You were here for months at a time, but never went to the zoo??? SHAME on you!!!
Let me know if you are ever in town and I will give you the zoo tour! :)
Maga
yay aminalz!
GuardianAngel
I LOVE animals! I wish I could sleep in the pens with the animals, but I know the zoo won't let me. Of course, I don't really want to be eaten by an animal, so it is probably for the best that they won't allow me to sleep in the pens! LOL
Lily
Love the polar bear.
GuardianAngel
The polar bears there are really cool. They are HUGE in real life! You can't tell from the picture, but that is a really big bear!
Athame
I love the zoo, great pics!
GuardianAngel
Thanks! I definitely love going to the zoo. I kind of wish that I worked in a zoo. I love animals. They are so much nicer than people! You know, as long as they aren't eating you, or anything. :)
Athame

Tristyn

Ridiculously delayed comment, but..... Yay!!!! I love the zoo!
If I'm ever in the area we are definately having a zoo day. :-) Same goes for you if you're ever in my area. Deal?
GuardianAngel
DEFINITELY a deal!!! We also have "Kennywood", which is a pretty cool amusement park with fun rides. If you make it here, then be sure that you are here for at least TWO full days! ;-)

OMGGGG i live for the zoo! That polar bear picture made my day! xo
GuardianAngel
Thanks! The polar bears were really cool. That picture was taken from inside the glass tunnel that goes under the tanks for some of the aquatic exhibits. They just recently opened that thing. I really enjoyed that.

I could totally take that lion.
In checkers
GuardianAngel
Yeah, but he has that serious, contemplative look. He would probably kick your ass at chess!

Hey nice pictures :)
You know what, I really miss the aviary in Pittsburgh, used to be into birds as a kid, loved the crow there who they taught to speak little phrases like "who what where why" :)
GuardianAngel
Thanks. :)
Yeah, the aviary is nice. I have only gone there once, but I didn't see the talking crow. They had a show with a predatory bird, but I can't remember which one now. It was a few years ago, when I went.
Chokhmah
Yeah, that was like my favorite place to go when I was a little kid visiting my grandparents out there.
There was basically fuck all to do out there and being a pretty nerdy kid, I became interested in the variety of birds out on my grandma's bird feeder. I ended up building a few traps (humane traps), to catch a few finches. Caught some sparrows and finches, even a goldfinch, but never did capture the grand prize I was after though: a bright red cardinal :)
Therese
I haven't been to the zoo in years & years so i must say i'm a wee bit jealous!
I love the pictures! Especially the elephants (awee look at that cutie baby!!). :]
GuardianAngel
Yeah, the baby was adorable! :)
I try to go once or twice a year. That is a shame that you haven't been to the zoo in years. I hope you get a chance to go soon. :)
XOXOXO
