At a Safari Rest Stop

I went to Safari West last week-end with 9 members of a Meet-Up group. We are photographers. Safari West is a little slice of Africa in Santa Rosa, CA.

What a neat experience it was to see so many different and exotic birds, and animals up close. Many of the birds and animals roam freely through the park where we drove. We stopped right next to a giraffe, zebras, and a we had a close encounter with a female ostrich. She didn’t want us to leave so she cleverly positioned herself near the gate so we couldn’t drive through. We ended up backing up and going out a different way. Which turned out wonderfully. I wouldn’t have seen the swan in this post if we hadn’t gone this way.
