Today we took advantage of the pleasant weather and went to Oxbow Park and Zoo. We decided we needed to have some fun with Jonas, since he screamed through his entire swim lesson this morning. Jonas is always up for animals, so this 40 minute drive was well worth it!
Above...the river otters. Below, we gaze at the cow. Yes, a cow. See, Oxbow is all about Minnesota animals...and what says MN more than a cow??

Jonas tempts this goat with some clover picked from the OTHER side of the fence...
I've always been a bit fascinated by the American Bison (aka buffalo). I even did a project on them in grade school...took a trip to a bison farm (or ranch?) and everything! Much to my dismay, Jonas was not overly excited by them, and referred to them offhandedly as "cows."
Do we all look exhausted after our fun afternoon? This time, daddy was behind the camera. He got lots of pictures of the other MN animals - a wolf, bobcat, fox, bear, etc. But about 15 pictures of a turkey? Seriously? See Miles's expression below for a good estimation of my opinion of the turkey!
