Spring is springing!

Despite the cold and rainy weather (and discounting the freaky 80 degree Saturday we just had thrown in to tease us), spring is thundering its way back at the zoo. Our intrepid Horticulture crew has been busy planting, mulching and making way for all the new growth and the impending explosion of blooms.

Here are just a couple shots from volunteer photographer Mat Hayward of the signs of spring on grounds. Here also is a link to a listing of some of the things that will be in bloom: http://www.zoo.org/zoo_careers/horticulture.html
