Beautiful day at the Folsom Zoo today. We had a most unexpected and glorious surprise when my husband spotted a Bald Eagle circling over head. I watched for at least five minutes until it flew away toward Folsom Lake and out of view. The Bald Eagle is not only special because it is our national bird and a rare bird to spot, but also it has great and personal significance for me. So to see one was really a special treat, a gift given from God's hand directly to my heart.
We also were able to pet some deer. They were the sweetest little and gentlest little animals and seemed to love being scratched and petted just as much as a purring kitten. The day was just gorgeous and the animals were so laid back, napping or basking in the sun.
Afterward we ate our lunch at some picnic tables just outside the zoo. We watched a little squirrel scurry up a tree with a 1" thick rope in its mouth about four feet long. Not sure what he planned on doing with that.
