The weather was perfect in San Antonio today... nice and overcast. The animals were feeling pretty lively, too. Here are a few from today. These are 1024 on the long end. Usually they do not appear too big when in landscape at this size. May have to rethink my future posting size

Rhino (Black? I get them confused)


Cheetah


Cattle Egret


Red Billed Whistling Ducks

Your shots are very nice. I like the Cheetah portrait.
Your Rhino is a White Rhino, I believe (square lipped?).
Your Whistling Ducks are Black-bellied Whistling Ducks, although they certainly are red billed.

Stunning images. What glass do you typically use? I went to a zoo day here in Houston and some came out okay but a lot of times I ran into a few problems. Just wondering as I am always in the market for tips and knowledge.
