Our only stop in the Bronx was the zoo, and in the dead of winter there aren’t many animals to be seen at a zoo – most of them are inside staying warm. But here are some of the animals we did see… There were two tigers, a polar bear, two grizzly bears, a snow leopard, and a red panda. Also present at the zoo but not pictured here were plenty of your common squirrels, ducks, swans, and peacocks, a few sea lions, and some bison. The photo of the waterfall is one of my favourites – this waterfall was near the bison enclosure and while I didn’t have a tripod with me, I placed my camera on the wall and left the shutter open for a long exposure to blur the water. And for anyone who might be wondering why the red panda looks more like a raccoon, it’s because they are indeed related to the raccoon family, not panda bears! =)
