A few weeks ago, when my brother and sister in law were in town, we spent a day at the National Zoo in nearby Washington DC. The day was perfect, the animals cooperated, and we had a blast.
And there were 9 very tired Franklins at the end of the day.
What are your favorite animals to visit when you go to the zoo?

I love the picture of the tiger. I tried to get one of the tigers at animal kingdom and it was a struggle getting a good shot
