Being natural

I love staying for late events at work.  The overtime is especially nice, but the best part it seeing the animals when most people have left.  When the sun goes down and the air is silent, the elephants stop looking for us to come and feed or entertain them and they turn into real elephants.  Something about the dark that makes it easier for a creature to let loose and be itself.  The night is peaceful, calm, and exciting at the same time.  I'm in love with that feeling.
