WEll, actually 2 places.
We LOVE the Holtsville ecology center zoo which is totally free to get in.
Check out the bear exhibit too-wow!
and of course White Post Farms is a family favorite with all those cute baby animals to feed plus the bouncers for kids. And the new bird exhibit was one my kids talked about for weeks!
Enjoy!

I love Sweetbriar. They have excellent hands-on programs. I mean, they're mostly geared towards kids but really, any animal lover will be able to appreciate them. I really enjoyed the Night Watch program where they displayed some of the owls they have living on the land. The nature trails are very relaxing in the summer.

I've heard about Sweetbriar, but never have been there... got to check it out.
There are lots of great nature trails at Connetquot State Park, just beautiful. Bird watching, deer and a fish hatchery... not a petting zoo, but more of a natural setting. There are parts of the trails that are just beautiful, ...you feel like you are upstate somewhere in the woods.
