Hide and Seek

When I was a young television reporter and it was a slow news day we would always call  to see what was going on at the www.calgaryzoo.com.   

At that time, in the 1970's the Calgary zoo was home to three very cute baby elephants and it was always fun to set up in the elephant enclosure and watch them play.  It made for great television and a welcome relief from all the various politics of the day.  These days if it isn't too cold, you can go and walk with the Emperor Penguins as they stroll around the zoo grounds.  Perhaps that will be for another day.

However...in the interests of welcome relief on this very cold winter's day, and because I'm still  on enforced rest as my back slowly heals...I give you Libby and Midnight and a wily game of hide and seek.

Midnight hides behind the door.  She figures if Libby forgets to look for her she can always make the doorjam buzz and amuse herself while she waits.  Libby hides in the tunnel.  Apparently if her head is hidden, so is the rest of her.

Ah hah - they found each other.  Now they can settle down and analyze the game, and pose prettily for the camera.
