Wildlife Safari

On Labor Day we headed west of Omaha to the Zoo's Wildlife Safari Adventure to kill some time.  Not knowing what to expect, I was pleasantly suprised at the set up and actually how many people take the tour.  What I loved about this little adventure is you stay in your vehicle and drive through the different areas to see the animals in their habitat's.  There is a place you can get out and enjoy a picnic, or walk up through the woods to see the wolves and bears... we decided to wait until Ryah is a little older to tackle that adventure.  It was fun to watch Ryah get so excited when the elk and bison came right up to the truck.  I wish I would have caught it on video!  Here are a few pictures of the animals we saw:

bald eagle-  I couldn't get over how large they really are!

Bison- and now I know the difference between bison and buffalo- thank you google!




Hope everyone was able to enjoy the wonderful weather we had on Labor Day!
