Zoo People

We recently took in the Birmingham Zoo, and both my wife and I were pleasantly surprised at how nice it was. We were told that the African section was recently renovated, and truth be told, that is the section that was most impressive.

The zoo also featured a sprinkler section as well as food courts and playgrounds. The day we picked to go was... hot! I took a picture of this lion because I felt like doing what he was doing... sleeping.

We are zoo people; we love going to the zoo. We have been to several, and this one was as good as all the others. We have found that each has its own passion. The Birmingham Zoo provided numerous opportunities to get closer to animals than most of the others we have frequented.

So, if you are looking for a good day trip, the Birmingham Zoo is a nice option. Another nice "zoo" option is the Nashville Zoo. Happy Trails!
