THE AXOLOTLS?????? look at their little faces omg all of the critters you shared are so cool!! aurora is absolutely adorable, and i love how fluffy the silkie chickens look! the asian water monitor also looks super cool <33Today we went back to our local aquarium and I had my sloth encounter!!! It was just as amazing as I hoped it would be!
I got to feed and pet this beautiful two-toed sloth named Aurora. Her fur was so much softer than I thought it would be. It looks wiry and coarse, but especially on her back and belly it was really plush. She was very hungry and quite impatient. When I didn't feed her fast enough, she would grab my hand and pull it towards her. It was such a great experience. I couldn't stop smiling the whole time.
We also paid the savannah cats, Luna and Versace, another visit. Versace was feeling anti-social but Luna stuck around and let us pet her the entire time.
We did a quick walk-through of all the exhibits again and I came across a few new animals we hadn't seen or photographed last time.
Silkie Chickens
They added a few more. This time they had a total of six in three different colors: 2 white, 2 black, and 2 brown.
Asian Water Monitor
This big guy was there last time but wasn't laying in a good position to photograph. I'm glad I got a better look this time.
Axolotls
I don't remember seeing these last time at all. They were in a small tank off to the side so maybe we missed them or maybe they were added later. Either way I was so excited to find them. One was irridescent with super bright, shiny eyes!

This looks ABSOLUTELY gorgeous and so do you! I envy that weather so much right now, we had a couple days of rain here and while I made the most out of it by going on long walks and bike rides, the hot sun burning my skin is right back and all I can do is dream (The weather finally seems to be consistently gorgeous, and I went on my first hike of the year yesterday afternoon! Only did ~3 miles this time but am looking so forward to an entire summer of long hikes and reconnecting with nature.
