St. Louis Zoo
Katherine and I went to the St. Louis Zoo. It was free admission (although you had to pay for parking), but it was a really great zoo! It was the first nice day of the year (so it was packed) but it was still a blast!
Butterfly Habitat
I think one of the coolest things about this zoo was that they had a butterfly pavilion inside the zoo. Since it was the first really nice weekend of the year the place was packed, including this really small pavilion. But I still had fun taking photos!

Swinging From the Vines
Curled Tongue
Bright Blue Skies
Of course these butterflies were behind glass, but a butterfly can dream...
Landing for a Moment
Speedy Fast
Right as we walked up this cheetah stood up and walked out of sight. Good thing I was faster than him at getting the shot.
Sleeping Snow Leopard
I took this shot behind a fence (doesn't look like it, does it?). Luckily I could get right up on the fence and crop the photo a little to get the fence lines out of the photo.
On a Log
The zoo had a bunch of ants behind some glass with a giant windy fake branch. These ants have to walk a good 20-30 feet before they are off the branch.
Photo Bombed
Snack Time
I really enjoyed the ape exhibit because unlike the Denver zoo, the St. Louis Zoo had the apes down below instead of behind a giant greasy/scratched wall of glass or ugly net.
Walking Around
The animals were all pretty active too, considering we were at the zoo in the afternoon. But I'm not complaining.
