Aviary Day

Yesterday, Jared & I went to the Tracy Aviary in Salt Lake City with Alisha and her kids. We got in for just $1 each with our Pass of All Passes. Sadly (or maybe not), I don't have any pictures of Alisha or me. We were pretty sweaty by the time we left so you'll just have to use your imagination. 

Jared handled his Uncle duties very well. He led us around the park and made sure we made it to a couple of bird shows. He even held up two children at once so they could see a Macaw. It's good training for him.

Here are some pictures from our adventure:

Searching for wild birds

Jared had his suspicions confirmed that female peacocks are brown

Just after I took this picture, the boy in the yellow shirt looked through his binoculars at the peacock and yelled, "I see one mommy! I see one!" 

The peacock was about four feet away from him at that point.

We got to see many birds, but I don't think it's as exciting as what can be found at the zoo (notice that most of my pictures are of people). Next stop: Hogle Zoo!
