Those Minnesotans living up north! Ha! Ha! Just kidding. We don't have a flake of snow anywhere here in Minnesota, yet!
GOOD FENCES
Here- Behind glassed area..... Free to roam the open behind fences too!

Nature teaches us sense and purpose, but mostly that owning a sense of humor is vital to our survival.

I was reminded on this day of something my mother said years ago. She couldn't understand how they called this a zoo, when we barely caught sight of animals! Yet, I was able to grab a few fence photos right?
As a matter of fact, after shooting this photo, I noticed someone trying to see what in the world I was shooting here.

Snow may be an uncomfortable pain the behind, but it sure makes for beautiful pictures.

you trickster! enjoyed my visit to the zoo :)
enjoyed the fences of various kinds - even a 'stone' fence. ;) and, yes, you had me for a second on the snow... :)
Answer to Ban Chao, a/k/a Honorable Sub Sandwich: "You can't." Enjoy the snow!
I am glad it is not snowing up there but that first photo sure is pretty. Loved all your zoo photos and those quotes on the fence. AND your quote too :). Have a great day Karen!
We had membership to Tampa's zoological park for years...but haven't visited in ages. Need to get back. It's only blocks away.
Btw...that was a jaguar not a tiger *wink*
For sure needed good fences.
Love the first shot the best.

Ah yes, but still a great quote and my only tiger shot was behind glass! No fence!
I remember years ago on October 18, we had a foot of snow drop overnight in Salt Lake City. I remember the date because it was my daughter's birthday and I had to move her party to my house because of so much snow. Nice view of the zoo.
LOL Karen! Good one! :) Lovely photos.
Your joke is NOT funny to those of us in Michigan! But your photos are fabulous!
I would love to hang out with you for a day. You have the best posts.
The zoo is always a fun time.. I enjoyed your captions and funny post. Great fence shots.. Enjoy your weekend ahead!
That snow photo was pretty but I'm so glad we aren't having snow here right now. I think fences in zoo's are necessary for sure. Too bad you didn't see many animals but you got great fence shots.
Great collection of fences, Karen. My husband was born in the tiger year but I don't think he's ever seen one p:-)
Oh, I smiled a lot to read you said 'someone trying to see what in the world I was shooting' (*^_^*) Actually I frequently have the same experience.

Methinks Yasmin should spend a lot of time at your zoo.

It's probably been 20 years since I visited the Minnesota Zoo. I remember it being a wonderful place. Your photos are amazing!
I like zoos, I've always had and I'll probably never stop to. Great photos - although that first photo gave me some shivers...
