Default Brookfield Zoo
It was supposed to rain today and when it didnt we took off for the zoo. We stayed a couple of hours before it became too overcast to shoot any pics. This time I took the 30D and Sigma 150mm F2.8. All shots handheld.

1. Scarlet Macaw
2. Blue Dacnis - male SE Brazil (Dacnis cayana)
3. Peacock hanging out in a tree
4. Cape Thick-knee S Africa


Thanks for looking!

Gil

Thanks for everything Luckyjon, even when I go the zoo I cant get the variety and quality you do. Actually most all of the bird cages were empty, I dont know if it was remodeling or the season.

You captured a multitude of expressions, but the "evil eye" is terrific.

I have to agree with the others , a great series but that last one also makes me smile with that evil eye look.
An expression like that on any animal is priceless.


K on the way Gil

Best regards Paul
