My first field trip of 2019 was to the Henry Doorly Zoo, the most popular tourist attraction in Nebraska. School was out so we took our granddaughter and braved the winter weather.
The highlight of this trip was seeing the African animals in parkas, mittens and snow boots. No. Wait, that was the elephants and giraffes seeing us. Both have new winter quarters and the giant buildings that house them are very interesting, although odds of getting a memorable picture are greatly reduced.
The best photo of the day was the two hoppers on a branch. Take what you can get.
