Inside the "Cloud Forest" they did an incredible job of making it feel like you were really walking around outside. There were also bridges up above the trees that gave us a bird's eye view of the forest below.
These leafcutter ants are really doing a number on the plant in the left corner of the photo. If you look closely, you can see them carrying their leaf pieces across the vine in the next picture.
The Cloud Forest was filled with beautiful butterflies...
This tiny bird lives in the Madagascar section of the Glass House,
along with a VERY slow chameleon
and a Mossy Tailed Leaf Gecko.
Outside, the spring flowers were in bloom. The hostas are coming up and getting ready to cover the tulips after their blooms fade.
The Japanese Garden was beautiful... I have new plans for my hill garden at home!
