Riverdale Farm

On Saturday I found out that I live near Riverdale Farm. My neighbor Lisa and I hit up a greasy spoon for brunch then and headed over to check out some nature.

Lots of pictures inside...

From 1894 to 1974, the site existed as the Riverdale Zoo. On closing, the animals were moved to the new Toronto Zoo and in 1978 the Riverdale Farm opened.

The farm has cows, chickens, sheep, pigs, ducks, geese, donkey, horses, and turkeys.

Here are some pictures I took while we were there:

That's one sad lookin' donkey.

Did you use a camera phone for these?

Yep, my Nokia 6620.

It's hard to hold it still enough to prevent a bit of blurryness, but reducing the image size from 640x480 to 300x225 makes them look okay.

That last picture, btw, is of the nearby Piggy's ice cream parlour which was unfortunately closed.
