Took a trip down the road to the
Tennessee Aquarium over the Labor Day weekend. I hadn't visited since they opened the "Ocean Journey" saltwater section, which has the "Penguins Rock" exhibit. Hope y'all enjoy the pics, even though they were taken with my cell phone.
The first exhibit in Ocean Journey is a butterfly garden with these birds running around...
A guy behind me said "Quick, give me your phone and I'll take a pic of the butterfly on the back of your head!
This is a freshwater stingray...
