We decided to flex our new Zoo membership cards today and visit the zoo again. Hmmmm shoulf have looked at the weather forecast. I got soaked, and the children had to change into school clothes for the journey home (they had come straight from their dad's). However we got to see one of the bears having an early morning play. London Zoo has three Sloth Bears on the Maplin Terraces. They are fab!
The giraffes were in good form as ever! I was trying to get a shot of his blue tongue, but it is a bit lost in the backdround.
And a slightly arty shot!
The three toed sloth having a snooze curled up underneath a branch.
Another attempt to capture the Golden Headed Lion Tamarind. Slightly less fuzzy, but nowhere near perfect!
The pelicans were all asleep apart from this one having a good scratch. I'm guessing he was a male!
I haven't seen the Bactrian Camels standing up yet, still at least they are wholesome unlike the fornicators at Chester Zoo!
And finally a very fuzzy shot of the leaf cutting ants. They are remarkable insects scurrying along with leaves twice their size on their backs. They scurried so fast that I couldn't capture them successfully. This photography lark is harder than it looks!
