August Sunrise
Rudbeckia
I try to remember to call them Rudbeckia, but since I grew up in Maryland, I think I will always think of them as Black Eyed Susans (the state flower of Maryland.)
Porcupine
The only time I’ve ever seen one of these in the wild, I had to keep hold of a 95 pound dog who was desperate to make its acquaintance. I enjoyed seeing it in the tree at the zoo much more.
Prairie Dog
Seeing these at the zoo seemed a bit superfluous since I see them crossing the road on a daily basis in the summer.
Lowland Gorilla
Hobby
We alerted the keeper when we saw this orangutan digging out the window caulking with a stick. The keeper told us that the orangutan liked to chew the silicon, and they just re-caulked the window when necessary.
