Durazno Zoo

We returned from our short roadtrip to Brazil yesterday and I was finally able to grab some photos to throw up here.

We headed out of Montevideo heading north. We made our way through a few departments and stopped for lunch in Durazno at their free, local zoo. Durazno is the spanish word for peach.


All these pictures are of birds even though the zoo had a bit of everything. Lions, Tigers, a bear, goats, deer, turtles, warthogs, monkeys, rabbits and more. But these are just the standout photos. The lions were amazing to see, but they were just lounging around trying to cool themselves in the summer heat.









I love the bright, tropical colors exhibited by these birds - well all excep this last one that just looks comical in its serious tone.
