Took an early morning "zoofari" and here are some of the results. I have named those that I know, or think I know, so please feel free to correct any I got wrong or did not put names for at all......Thanks for looking. Comments welcome

1. New gorilla mom Mandara with her 5 month old named Kibibi.

6. Can't go to the zoo without shooting the pandas right? I think this is Mei Xiang.

7. One of two California Sea Lions. I believe this is Calli. The way to tell the difference between a sea lion and and a seal is to look at there ears. Sea lions have ear flaps ans seals just have a opening with no outward flap.

Nice shots! I didn't know sea lions and seals were not the same animal!
