Thnxs Harry I was expecting the wire these guys were behind to be visable but I was happily surprised. I wasn't as lucky on the Bald Eagle shots,

Thnxs Troy! The Owl was in the birds of prey area. I tried and focus right between the wire. I used my 70-200VR for all the shots. The light wasn't good enough to use the Bigma.

4labs,

These are very nice. I too like the White Owl (no wait, that's a cigar), I mean Snow Owl. I liked the Toucan with the banana on his beak too.....LOL

You can only do so much shooting at a zoo. You did really good, IMO :thumb :thumb

Especially, having to shoot through fences :clap



Good work and thanks for sharing,
Steve

Thnxs so much Steve,

You and Harry have set the bar really high, it's been very motivating to see your pics..Living where I do, I have to settle for the zoo for now. Here is one more of Love Toucan stylehttp://4labs.smugmug.com/photos/17700582-M.jpg
