I love my little flip phone. It fits in my key chain so is easy to carry and always have with me. Me and my phone are fodder for many jokes. Last week I asked Jill to take a photo for me. She pulled out her phone and at the same time made some comment about my phone’s and my inability to take a photo. I immediately got my phone and figured out not only how to take a photoRead more

Mixed Species Exhibits
We have a few exhibits that have different species of animals liking together. In the Farmyard, Lightning and the goats share an area. Inside, the water snake and mud turtle share a home. (There is also another mixed-species exhibit inside. Guesses?) These exhibits are purposeful. However, outside, we seem to have another group of animals co-habiting well together.
