Day 5 - Como Zoo

Keeping with yesterday's theme of pictures of living things, today I present some photos taken at Como Zoo in Saint Paul. Before going to take these pictures I had probably not been to Como Zoo since I was a very little kid going to watch Sparky the Sea Lion do amazing tricks. For anyone who does not know Como is kind of the lesser of the two zoos in the Twin Cities. The Minnesota Zoo (as I remember it at least) is much nicer, bigger and has more animals. The down side to the Minnesota Zoo though is the $12 admission and $5 parking fee. What can I say, I am cheap so I spent the afternoon walking around the Como Zoo and the Marjorie McNeely Conservatory. The Conservatory photos will have to wait for another day though (lets face it, November is a long month I still have a lot more posts if I am going to prove Dave wrong!).
