Amable, the zoo's 13-month-old hippopotamus was enjoying both the stream of water refilling the pond and the morning tourists under the glass. Surprised at how high she was able to get, and yes, this is a swimming move - she was not standing.
Nice to see spring hitting San Diego in the first week of February. This tree is in front of the Natural History Museum (bokeh in the background).
Not sure the type, but in the cactus garden adjacent to the rose garden at Balboa Park.
