Not a Unicorn

A beautiful afternoon for a walk in the woods. One of our favorites is just a few miles from Hibbard Studio on the Lief Ericsson trail in Forest Park right off Germantown Road.

After a mile, Hyun wanted to walk faster and so she and the dog went ahead. They saw a Scimitar Oryx and a man. Hyun took a picture with her iPhone. Luna, of course, supervised.

Do I remember seeing the animal at the Taronga zoo in Sydney Australia 15 years ago? Hyun did not recall seeing the Oryx back then. It occurred to me after I looked up the Wikipedia entry with a picture taken at Taronga zoo.

PS: Turns out it was on OPB and other news outlets.
