Ben Wheeler's Zoo Photos for Wild Wednesday

Happy wild Wednesday! My wonderful husband was kind enough to let me publish some of his photos from a recent trip to the National Zoo and we hope they make you smile.

Luke is a magnificent male lion who looks fearsome when roaring but adorable when sleeping.

Outside the reptile house this creature kept an eye on us.

Volunteers have told us that the best time to see sand cats is the early morning. Most zoo buildings don't open until 10:00 am but the small mammal house opens earlier (I think we were there at 9:15).
Minature donkey: Copyright © Ben Wheeler, 2015
The petting zoo has minature donkeys, including the funny one pictured above, as well as alpacas, cows, chickens, goats and more. It seems like either the donkeys or goats are usually doing something funny when we visit.

Thank you to Ben for sharing his fun photos! I'll gladly pass on any comments you share below. May God bless him and may He bless you too!
