Check out the lone hippopotamus we saw at the San Francisco Zoo this past weekend. He even got out of the water to walk around – it was fascinating! Doesn’t he just draw you in and make you wonder what he’s thinking?

I don’t trust him…..
Hahaha – that’s so you, Liz
I think he’s cute…..from a distance.
Yes, thank goodness for zoom lenses, eh?
He just wants to stay cool in late summer! He’s a great big water baby.
So true. You should have seen this guy walk out of the pool – he was HUGE!
Pretty photo!
Thank you. I was really surprised at the details around his eyes. I’ve never really looked that closely at hippos in real life, for obvious reasons of course.
Great picture!! I love it.
Yes, he does draw me in! I would love to see one of these in person! So cool that you were able to experience this.
This is such a great shot! Hippos are my daughter’s favorite!
