Mainichi Panda

If you've been reading my blog long, you know how I love giant pandas.  I recently discovered the website Mainichi Panda, which means everyday panda. Forty year old web designer Takahiro Takauji has been taking photos of the Ueno Zoo pandas daily since August 2011. He has an annual zoo pass and usually takes photos on his lunch break or before work. You can read more about him in this Asahi Shimbun article. 



These photos of his show baby Shan Shan at 6 months and in the same pose at 1 year.  Kawaii desu!

You HAVE to love Pandas. The only toy I can ever remember having was a giant stuffed Panda. (Yes, I had a sad childhood).
