the San Antonio zoo (uhh, a couple months ago)

I just noticed that my only zoo animal pictures, besides the goat, are all birds. Weird.

When you are in doubt, be still, and wait;
when doubt no longer exists for you,
then go forward with courage.
So long as mists envelop you, be still.
Be still until the sunlight pours through
and dispels the mists --
as it surely will.
Then act with courage.
