posts about elephant.
recently we were in knie’s kinderzoo in rapperswil. judging from the huge amount of families, apparently a very attractive destination. and from judging the kids, they seem to like it a lot. here are some impressions:
for the third time, i visited calgary’s zoo on this weekend. this time, i bought an annual pass, so i will go there a few more times this year. this is a very good opportunity to try out my new toy, a 400 mm telephoto lens.
red panda.
i began by visiting the red panda, watching him for quite a while.
siberian tiger.
after that, i went over to the siberian tigers.
black swan.
on some pond, a few black swans were floating.
snow leopard.
elephant.
an elephant, bathing himself with sand.
giraffe.
lion.
the lions were pretty sleepy. but at some point, one lion got up and walked around a bit.
grizzly bear.
the grizzly bear was sleepy as well, and so was the black bear which was more brown than black. but i got a nice paw shot
wolf.
the last times i was at the zoo, the wolves were rather sleepy. but this time, they were running around, playing, having fun. so i took the chance to take some pictures.
mountain goat.
miscellaneous.
some random impressions.
