Sting Ray Bay

There is a new exhibit at the Phoenix Zoo where you can actually pet the sting rays as they swim in front of you in the pool. If you are really lucky you can feed the rays. The zoo people volunteering at the exhibit said they feed them at random times so no way to plan when to be there.

I got to feel a few rays as they swam by. They feel like slippery rubber. If it had not been so cold outside, I think the girls would have been more eager to stick their hands in. The water was warm but after you took your hands out they were cold very quickly.

The rays will come to Phoenix every year from November through April and then go back to their zoo in Cleveland...I think in the summer.
