Story Book Gardens

Timbavati Wildlife Park
we are waiting for the animal show to start
Daddy went and got everyone's sandwhiches so that they could eat while we waited for the show to begin.
the porcupine has really orange teeth - yuk
Pokey is wondering around among the audience.
Logan got a good look up close.
Snook the sloth
Ethan gets a "high 3" from Snook the 3 toed sloth
some kind of african hawk

Franklin is a Green Bay Cheese Head who is evidently
"Too Fast For You"

Tiger Lily
say hi to "Bob"
He is member of the raccoon family - it's all in the tail.
Kookaburra sits in the old gum tree,
Merry merry king of the bush is he,
Laugh kookaburra, Laugh kookaburra,
How gay your life must be.
It's Tocan Sam - I am hungry for some fruit loops!
another family picture with Tiger Lily
baby Kylee and the baby zebra "Ziggy"
each of the kids take turns feeding Ziggy - Logan first.
Ethan's turn - He especially likes Ziggy because his stripes are still brown.
Jolee's next - feeding the baby animals is so much fun!
Kylee is curious what the wet long black thing is... she wants to grab it!
Kylee loved the giraffes
The kids love this little victorian house tucked away under the giant willow tree.
They would stay and play here all day if we let them.
Jolee would love a pink and purple house of her own.
When we get home she wants to know when Daddy has plans to build one.
the Lynx is just hangin' out
the little red hen
Peter saved Franklin the turtle from a long time spent overturned on his back.
"Hootie" the Great Horned Owl
Shelby & Sheldon
Jolee is ringing the school bell - time for school
Logan is our future train conductor
CHOO-CHOO!!!
Kylee likes riding the choo-choo train
the giraffe's have such long tounges
-almost as long as my niece and nephew's, Livia & Rome-
Kylee is reluctant to share the grapes with the giraffe...
but the giraffe is so gentle she isn't scared at all.
Peter is A.K.A. the Giraffe whisperer
Daddy & Kylee
make way for ducklings
Charlie the Camel has 3 humps - Jolee, Ethan, & Logan
...so ride Charlie ride... bump, bump, bump...
Logan, Ethan, & Jolee each found ostrich feathers
the giraffes are such gentle giants
Kylee found his favorite spot right behind his ear
I spy with my little eye... something that's... small, furry, & cute.
Aaawwwhhh! Look @ the teeny tiny baby monkey! So cute!
Even the Mommy Monkey is smaller than the water bottle!!!
All ABOARD the animal train!!!
