2017 was a record year for Zoobilation.  More than 5,000 guests fluttered their feathery, colorful frocks and helped the zoo raise over $2.4 million!

Zoobilation!  I love, love, love it!

 Lael:  "How do you take a picture like that and not get caught?!"

 Me:  "Do you really think she would care?  Besides, the way the man is looking I think I did!"

So where do you buy a dress like that?  How much would  a dress like that cost? Would you ever wear a dress like that again?  Do you think she has other clothes like that?  Hey, if anyone could pull it off she did!  Her hair looked great with the outfit and I'm being totally serious.  I actually loved the dress.

So six times a day Macaw birds fly to this new Pavilion.  They do big loops out in the zoo, and they fly wherever they want to fly.   Guests can get a really, really close encounter with these birds, because they do fly really low to the ground.  The macaws
are best known for their colorful feathers and intelligence.  We did get to see them too!

I would like to say we stayed till the cows came home, but truthfully when we left the party was in full swing.
