…Toronto High Park Zoo
Yesterday, after dropping off my husband at the hospital for his routine appointments I decided to drive the short distance to High Park. I parked in the lot by the park’s restaurant and went inside for a coffee but not before taking photos of the the gardens in front. Inside, while enjoying my hot beverage, I posted several photos on my blog. When I finished I packed up and headed for the zoo.
The zoo holds many fond memories for me. As a young child we frequently went there when my father had a day off from work. From all the old photos it amazes me to see how we would dress up for these outings. When we had our own children we loved going to this zoo. It was close to where we lived and admission was free.
Yesterday was relatively mild as I made my way down the hill toward the zoo. I was pleased that it was feeding time because that meant the animals were out of their shelters.
Most of the animals at the zoo are sheep, bison, cattle and llamas.
The feeding stations are also close to the pedestrian sidewalks.
Of all the animals the llamas were the most active.
On my way back to the car I was fortunate to see that the yak had come out of his shelter for a bite to eat.
