Just love, love, love this place! If I lived closer I’d visit on a regular basis, bring my lunch and make it an afternoon.

They roll up the sidewalks here early, so make sure to visit around opening time. That way you’ll have more time to enjoy the lions, emus, ostrich’s, parrots and Ozzie the Giraffe.

Summer hours; Thursday thru Monday 10:00AM to 2:00PM. Last admittance at 1:00PM. Closed on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Visit their website to purchase tickets, reserve a behind the scenes tour or sponsor a lion! They do have a gift shop with t-shirts, Ozzie’s paintings and more. 

This visit Ozzie was leaning over to say hello next to a tree he was very interested in. Such a friendly giraffe with painting skills to boot. A few of the lions were awake plus we watched while the lionesses were being fed. The macaw and cockatoo are very sociable. It’s fun to chat with them and watch them respond. We stayed until they closed, with visions of a wonderful visit dancing thru my head.

Relaxing in the sun
Waiting for more food
I just know he was posing for me!
Such beautiful colors on this macaw
A big yawn
Such a beautiful lion
Ozzie!
Ozzie! Such a sweetie.

I use a combination of my iPhone and my Fujifilm X-E2 camera for all my photographs. Just depends on where I am as to which one I'll use to take my pictures with. I love to write original stories combined with my photographs. If you'd like to send me a message or comment, please do so at; maggie@hungryones.com We just celebrated our 14th Anniversary this October 2016!! So exciting!! 2015 A couple since 2003 and now on the precipice of this new journey, our fondest hope is this website serves a purpose. One of useful information presented in an elegant, beautiful photographic setting. Together we love to discover new restaurants, food trucks, diners, café’s, huts or where ever we find food being served. The love of artful, carefully crafted, passionately orchestrated food, beverages and let’s not forget desert, Is something we both enjoy immensely. Immersing ourselves in the history, culture and surrounding locations of our adventures hopefully leads to not only meeting new people, but making new friends, sharing ideas, listening to stories and learning something new everyday.
