I'm ashamed to admit that up until last month, I'd never even been to the Rosamond Gifford Zoo which is mind-boggling considering how close we live. I was so impressed that I called some family members who live in Albany and have small children and told them if they're ever interested in making a day of it, I'd gladly pack up my son and meet them there.

Whether you've never been to the Rosamond Gifford Zoo or you have but it's been a while and you'd like to see what the zoo looks like now, check out the photos I took during our visit!
