You know that trip where a bunch of us went to the Minnesota Zoo and took photos? Well I've finished processing them and slapped a few captions on here and there. The set is here.

| Cheetah Purr |
[Nov. 6th, 2009|04:33 pm] |
When I went to the Greater Vancouver Zoo, I happened to walk by the cheetah enclosure while the cheetah was doing something unusual. I didn't get a good photo... but that's because my dinky little carry-around camera also does video. While I'm not a great videographer, you can mostly hear the purr over the wind noise.
(Video is 16s long, and hopefully embedded OK. Never done a flickr video before.) |

| Red River Zoo |

I go to the Red River Zoo twice a year. Once on the way to Winnipeg. Once on the way back from Winnipeg.
The wolves have grown up, and the kids in Fargo are now made out of spun sugar, but other than that, things are much the same. The set is here.

| Minnesota Zoo - |

I went to the Minnesota Zoo in June, and I'm just now getting to posting the photos. On the down side, sorry I'm so behind on my zoo photos. On the plus side, aren't you glad to get content that isn't just the deranged ravings of a pangolin obsessive? :)
This was just a general walkabout, but seems to have a few more birds than usual. This may have something to do with it being during summer and my having a 400mm lens with me. The set is here.

| Greater Vancouver Zoo |
[Oct. 1st, 2009|10:32 am] |
So there's this zoo near Vancouver. It's OK. For some reason, none of the Canadian zoos I've been to are very photo friendly. There's a lot of chainlink fence that's difficult to shoot through and, frankly, many of the animals seem to be more lethargic than in US zoos. Maybe they're older? Maybe they're just more laid back (they ARE Canadian, after all ;) . In any case, the photos aren't as interesting as I'd like, but the set is here.

OK, While I as at the Brookfield Zoo this spring, the tiger was particularly active. I spent about two hours just taking photos of the tiger. These highlights from the set show part of it:
