Yosemite after heavy overnight snow.

The sea otters at Monterey Bay Aquarium are absolutely adorable.

Monterey Bay Aquarium has lots of tanks full of different types of jellyfish slowly swirling around. They're very hypnotic to watch. Like a living lava lamp.

A spectacular San Diego sunset.

They have a lot of Cocks of the Rock at San Diego Zoo. They're a bit easier to spot here than when we were in the jungle.

This is one of the few panda cubs that was born outside of China in San Diego Zoo's successful breeding program.

Polar bears love rockmelon. Definitely not something we expected.

We visited on Valentine's Day, and you can see the love in the air.

As part of World Bonobo Day the zookeepers put peanut butter on the windows of the bonobo enclosure. It's clearly a favourite treat for them.

A mother colobus monkey checks her baby for lice (he doesn't seem very happy about it).

So we went to the world famous San Diego Zoo, and then spent ages taking photos of a squirrel.

The "Spanish Village" in Balboa Park, where you can buy all sorts of locally made arts & crafts.

Another fancy colonial-era church, or is it...?

It looks like fancy colonial-era church, but it was built for an exposition in 1915.

A picture of a hummingbird feeding from a flower while in flight.

When the light catches the right angle, this hummingbird's face is bright magenta. Otherwise it's black.
