Springtime… lots of ducklings to be found at the zoo. These were being harassed by kids, whose parents didn’t do anything to stop them… even with a very flustered and concerned mommy duck nearby. This was the last duckling to take the plunge after the kids chased them off the bridge.

Tiger
Apr 25 2009I think I’ve discovered the perfect time to visit the zoo… go around 2.30/3 and a lot of the animals that are normally asleep or hidden are all active and out and about! It was awesome… the tigers were super playful and the bears were out of their dens. Also actually saw a mongoose this time, because it was also not hiding in some dark corner. :P

Another shot from the Carlsbad Flower Fields. There’s a free Canon macro photography workshop over there this coming weekend… I’m contemplating going again to check it out. I’d have to pay the $10 admission again, though :/

Taken at the Carlsbad Flower Fields while my family was in town, the center of this flower looked like it could be used in some alien movie. They look like little worm things with their mouths open haha.
