Mad! Anything

We visited the zoo this week...twice!

The snow leopard cub is getting big.  We stared at each other for a while after his mom woke him up from his nap in the sunshine at the top of the hill.  (Actually, I think he was staring at Matthew sitting in the stroller, lol.)

This is the mama before she went to check on him.  I used watercolor markers.

And to my surprise, there was a baby zebra!  He was born late this year, though it looked like he won't be alone for the winter as one of the other zebra looked quite well along herself. These are sketches of the daddy zebra and (I'm pretty sure) pregnant mama.  The herd did look pretty sparse last time I was there; I suppose it had something to do with these developments.

(I did sketch the foal the next day...will post that another time.)
