Took a little trip up to the Detroit Zoo in Royal Oak. Very weird going there by myself with no kids! It was a gorgeous morning and I enjoyed just walking the beautiful grounds. Took more photos of butterflies and flowers than zoo animals. Got a few great ones of a polar bear (above) and saw the 2 month old camel...cute. Loved the butterfly house. It was a great morning
Don't know the story behand this elephant sculpture other than it may represent the fact that the zoo no longer has any elephants. The long standing resident elephant was retired to a resue farm and was never replaced but I love this little guy...he is adorable.
Trying to find who the artist is. Do you know?
