On my recent visit to the Maryland Zoo in Baltimore I have to admit Samson the 420 lb. baby elephant stole my heart and made me
giggle but in the area just above the elephants there were three camels.  Camels in Baltimore you may ask, why yes! 
And most importantly there I found yet another wee little one, Mocha.
Mocha is a two month old camel born weighing 35 lbs. and now a slight 60 lbs., and looking good with her long slim legs!
She enjoys her days in the shade of the trees and the larger two camels and loves munching on all the planted flowers! 
Word is she enjoys grazing on the pretty flowers so much that camel owner and trainer, Chip Malchow asked for the budget to be a
bit larger for additional flowers, or should we say, delicious replacement flowers.  Camel rides also available, but, not on baby Mocha.
Again, I encourage anyone that has not been to the Maryland Zoo to go this summer, it’s a fun treat.  Check out my photos of Mocha!
The one of Mocha smelling and tasting the beautiful flowers looks a lot like the deer that graze on the plantings in my yard.
