Meerkat at the Zoo – PAD #1009

Meerkat at the Zoo - PAD #1009

Today Allison and I took Eva over to the Capron Park Zoo. I also got to use a real camera again so I was able to get some decent photos at the zoo. I love photographing the animals at the zoo. I also met a zoo volunteer who does many of the photos for the zoo and promotional materials.

I wonder if he would like any of these photos that I took.

I am very happy to be back home and to have access to my cameras again. I had a great time using my macro lens around the zoo. My favorite animals to photograph are the lions. The zoo is working on getting a White Lion cub. I can’t wait to see it and photograph it.

Next month Allison and I are headed to Florida for a vacation and we will be down near Miami, I saw a TV show today where the people on the show were talking about many locations in Florida and the Miami area specifically where families can go to see animals. I didn’t know that there was a zoo there and I hope that we can go. I want to go to Butterfly world again as it was an amazing place to go and take photos. Some of my favorite photos of 2007 were from there. This time I am going to get even more of them.

  1. I haven’t been to a zoo for just over a year, with my new camera I should go, but it’s too darn cold right now. You got some great pics, The first one is so cute, a muskrat right?

  2. Chica, I bet you would have some great zoo shots. This is a meerkat, it is the same animal as Timon from The Lion King.

  3. Thanks so much. Our zoo is little but it is the kind of place that you can certainly get up close with the animals. There are many volunteers there sho can help you out too.

  4. The zoo is quitew good in the winter. Most animals are more lively and the indoor exhibits are quite interesting. The rain forrest is funtastic and new animals keep appearing.
    Come on over to see us and bring your cameras.

  5. Thanks Jim, It was great meeting you and I hope you liked my photos. Looks like Zooomr is having a problem with them right now. I will have to get that fixed. We will be back to take photos soon.
