If you leave a comment, Jim will visit your blog and leave a comment.Although I'm always a Client of my marketing guru, and he always takes five of his Clients to the Zoo at the end of each quarter, I always get to go without taking up a Client spot since my name is also on our Dual Diamond Membership.

We went to the Zoo last week, and while I always have a great time at the Zoo, I think this past visit was the best ever, for three main reasons:

First, there were lots of baby wildlife that were active. Usually they are hidden in their little houses or behind mommy and daddy.

Second, the four Malayan tigers were not only up and walking around, they were chasing each other and playing with each other.

Third, and this was the highlight of our visit, were the peacocks. They were honking and displaying themselves like you wouldn't believe. I had no idea that a bird could make that kind of noise. Here are the two best pictures of one of the peacocks, one from the front and one from the back.

There will be lots more pictures to come, here in my blog and over at Russel Ray's home inspector blog and his marketing & business consulting blog.
