Tyler Zoo - 04-08-2008, 03:12 PM


I got the chance to spend a little time at the Tyler Zoo and if you haven't been out there i must say im pretty shocked its a great little place. I wish half the good animals (lions, tigers and so forth) weren't hidden behind glass. However the glass is still pretty new so there isn't a lot of damage to it so you can shoot through it. They also have no problem with you shooting photos out there and their is no commerical restrictions either. If you find yourself out that way you should check it out, i promise its worth it.

nice images.
I agree with you I went last year and plan to go back because I was surprised how nice it is for a small zoo and the glass is really nice and clean so it is easy to shoot thru.
did you get any of the bobcats?

Are you talking about Caldwell? If so, yes, it is a beautiful zoo! I've gotten some great shots there!
