Tyler Zoo

G is on spring break this week, so Dan took Tuesday off and we went to the zoo in Tyler, TX. This was the first time G had ever been to the zoo. It was so much fun. The weather was perfect and there were no crowds. The Caldwell zoo is a great size and has a variety of animals. G really likes the alligators and Giraffes. M loved the birds. The birds were in a big cage you could walk into and buy a stick with bird seeds on it. G held out is stick and the birds flew right to it. I was holding M and the stick and a bird flew to us. M started screaming and tried to jump out of my arms because he was so excited. He even grabbed onto the bird for a couple of secs before it flew away. We also saw a white tiger who did not like guys in ball caps. Every time I guy with a hat walked by the tiger jumped onto the class. G and I both screamed when we saw this for the first time. The first thing I thought of was the animal attack at the zoo in San Diego that happened a couple of weeks ago.
