summer at the Milwaukee County Zoo

It wouldn't be a summer in Milwaukee without a few trips to the zoo.

What are some of your quintessential summer activities?

first 2015 trip to the Milwaukee County Zoo

Many of you know that I'm a huge fan of the Milwaukee County Zoo and I go multiple times each year. Somehow before this month, I hadn't been since the summer of 2014. The beautiful weather we've had this March was the perfect excuse to go again.

Where have you been taking pictures lately?

Z is for Golden Hour at the Zoo

Are you ready for another round of Alphabe Thursday? Let's go!

We've reached the end of the alphabet yet again! Congrats to all who have been playing along. For those who are simply here to read, I hope that you've enjoyed the ride. I plan to play along again if it keeps going.

Today I'm sharing pictures from this summer when I spent the golden hour at the Milwaukee County Zoo for the first time during one of their Sunset Zoofari events. Enjoy.

D is for Ducks

Are you ready for another round of Alphabe Thursday? Let's go!

This week I'm bringing back ducks for the letter D. Enjoy.

When I was at Frame Park in Waukesha last month, I saw an abundance of ducks.

 

I also saw a few when I was at Doctors Park in the north Milwaukee suburbs earlier this month.

Sometimes when I'm photographing ducks, a few geese sneak into the photos, too. I took both of these pictures in Greenfield Park, the first in April and the second in May.

Z is for Zoo

Are you ready for another round of Alphabe Thursday? Let's go!

I'm pretty excited that I'm completing Alphabe Thursday for the second time in its entirety without skipping any letters. I didn't doubt that I could complete it again, but it's still pretty cool. If you missed any rounds or want to go back and re-visit some of the posts search Alphabe Thursday on this blog.

Today I'm revisiting my Z theme from the last round and sharing pictures from my last three trips to the Milwaukee Zoo. Enjoy.
