Bird Show

At the zoo we saw a cool bird shows.  I was very impressed watching how well the birds were trained (until the last bird).  The last one, a vulture, had been out of the rotation for a little while.  It took them a good while to bribe him back to "his house".  But other than that, it was amazing.  Especially the owl that flew right over everyone's head.  A little too close for my comfort, but impressive. 

Getting ready for the show with Derek and Elisa...Aaron refused to sit beside me.
This hawk was catching food thrown up in the air with his feet and eating it while flying
"Hello Mr. Owl"
The vulture that didn't want to leave the party.  Surprisingly, he was really pretty.
