They also come in charcoal.Northern Reflections is a quality Canadian women’s clothing company, I’ve been a happy customer over the years (since 1985 when the first store opened) and I’m delighted to collaborate with a company who cares about our environment and values SLOW FASHION.#southampton #sunset #lakehuron#sunset #southampton Ontario #lakehuronStyling my floral top with white jeans and red jeans. #florals #magnolias #fashion #fashionbloggerStyling my floral top with red jeans and black faux leather pants. #florals #fauxleather #fashion #fashionblogger #thrifingStyling my floral blazer with white jeans and black faux leather pants. #fashionblogger #florals #whatveganswearI always find something I like at Northern Reflections 🇨🇦(Canadian women’s apparel store).

It’s interesting. This theme doesn’t show the comment box in an iPad, so I’m typing without being able to se any of it. Anyway, I love the stunning flamigos

Carmen….any acceptable zoos in your opinion….I think of city children and any people who would never see an animal besides pets…what about open (but contained) spaces….eg Lion Safari….the local butterfly Wings 0f Paradise or the butterflies at Niagara Pkwy….(I have not been to either one but I think they serve a valid purpose)…..we enjoyed the “aquarium” at I think it was Monteray….it was in California……certainly we enjoyed the penguin sanctuary of so many hundreds of hectares ,of natural environment except for the footpaths for people (penguins had the right of way if on or crossing the paths)….were the Flamingo Gardens completely natural habitat or were there footpaths ? I think I have misinterpreted the term zoo…..certainly I abhor animals caged in zoos as depicted by Jean…..locally, I have enjoyed walking the trails of Rare on owl prowls, spotting deer in the distance ,having a family of deer cross the trial 200-300 hundred feet away….natural habitat except that people have impacted on it….I’m sorry….I’m prattling on….certainly do enjoy your blog ….no doubt the flamingos enthralled your heart….we saw pink flamingos in the Galapogos ,as natural a habitat you can get but there is great concern ,rightfully so,about the impact of tourism….please do keep on blogging……Bob Feb 25, 2012

Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog and respond with your thoughts, Bob! I will write more of my thoughts about the questions you raise, it certainly is an important discussion. Billions of dollars are spent on zoos, but it seems most are at the expense of the animals.

I agree with your statement about zoos. I find them completely depressing. The animals are imprisoned for our enjoyment! How is that enjoyable? I appreciate animals in the wild where I can see how how they really live, and where they can be free.

I’d rather see a squirrel, chipmunk or bunnies in the wild than a lion, tiger or elephants in cages! It’s like keeping animals in a jail, but they have never done anything wrong.
I say cage or jail, because enclosure is a euphemism.
Cage is anything that confines or imprisons; prison.
Animals are not for entertainment, experiments or abuse.
