The friendly beasts

One of the things I like best about the Columbus Zoo is the goats. Yes, the kind in the petting zoo. They have pygmy goats and regular-sized goats, but the regular-sized goats are the friendliest.

I started to pet the goat and he didn't want me to stop.

Jeff made some friends, too. The lorikeet aviary lets you feed nectar to the birds for a dollar.

They approve of this arrangement. There are some who aren't really even in it for the nectar, just the attention.

And then there were those who had better things to do.
