Eagles and Elephants and Budgies, Oh My!

At the end of the school year Kate's class took a field trip to the Point Defiance Zoo in Tacoma. We lucked out with some nice weather that day, and had a really enjoyable time. Kate felt so big and important to be going on her first school field trip. 




The elephants are always one of Kate's favorite

This year, Kate and Ellie especially loved the Budgie bird exhibit. While we were there a bird flew right down to Kate's seed stick, and she and Ellie watched in amazement. Of course, Ellie then threw a fit because she didn't have her own seed stick. But once that oversight had been corrected, they watched in amazement a second time while Ellie's bird ate. There are no photos of that round because I couldn't hold Ellie, help with the stick, and take photos all at the same time. Hey, I'm pretty talented, but I do have my limits.
