Red River Zoo, Fargo, ND—nice! After our night of hail, it was good to see plain gray skies this morning! And the sun did come out later, with a breeze so it wasn't too muggy.
I drove into Fargo and found the zoo from the directions the KOA people gave me. It’s a nice zoo! You’re greeted at the entrance by a tigalo (a buffalo statue painted like a tiger). And such friendly people at the desk, answering my questions about the tigalo (on entering) and the tanuki (on leaving), and giving me directions for the next leg of my journey.
From there, I happily wandered … past the wolf area, with three creamy white and one dark wolf wandering happily in the grass, and arguing among themselves—the dark one apparently at the bottom of the issue … past the bald eagle, solitary and majestic on his tree … and the duck family, little downy ducklings swimming frantically to keep up with their mother … a pair of tanuki (/tan OO kee/), which are “raccoon dogs” from Siberia—there are only seven total in the US … an aardvark, happily asleep on his back, feet curled in the air a la Dolphin … and the carousel, nicely maintained, all horses … such fun! cantering smoothly over the hills across the fields up, girl, up! flying, soaring through the forest past the oceans into my dreams gripping with my knees swaying to her rhythm my beautiful golden mare running in peace then the music stops the carousel slows time to leave Share This Blog:
