Clicking Mad Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 I'm definitely still coming! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirislin Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 are you just taking the one lens. I was thinking of leaving my camera bag at home and just taking camera and lens slung over my shoulder. I better check what the weather will be though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iltby Posted March 10, 2011 Author Share Posted March 10, 2011 Yep, can't wait! I'll see you guys there I believe MsJames and Haven are coming too, though maybe a little later. I think I'll just use my 70-200mm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirislin Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 I think the forecast is good. I have to leave soon to be out front by 9am. It's still dark and the whips are still asleep, they wont be happy to find me going, damn I wish I could bring them all. I just know they'd LOVE the zoo I can imagine the other animals would be very interested in them too, especially the lions. I'm thinking the whips would really like the meerkats.....to eat.

Kirislin Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 I had a lovely day and took lots of pics. Here's one, the orangutans are amazing, they are interested in us and interact alot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirislin Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 this is a young boy and he looks full of mischief here. He's actually got a mouth full of water. and he squirted it at his long suffering dad! Here he is in a more thoughtful pose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirislin Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 a volunteer told me they like to look in our bags so I held my bag open and she did indeed take interest and look inside, I feel sure she is smiling at me here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirislin Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 thanks Tess, Suma is a sweet heart. I'd like to sit down and have a cuppa with her. I know the ones of the little guy with the mouth full of water weren't in focus but it was the only time I got him doing that so I posted them anyway. He also did a wee at his dad trying to antagonise him I suppose. He was so cheeky and cute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirislin Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 I think this is a girl and I'm not sure but she looks like she might be missing her left hand. Does anyone know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRzipper Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 a volunteer told me they like to look in our bags so I held my bag open and she did indeed take interest and look inside, I feel sure she is smiling at me here. Fab photo Krislin - What a gorgeous face Suma has, full of warmth, humour and intelligence. It makes me smile just to look at it JR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirislin Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 Hasn't she got the sweetest expression. I am looking forward to seeing Iltby and Clicking Mads' pics. I imagine they have alot of processing to do. I doubt I took as many pics as they did and I haven't finished mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wagsalot Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 Great photos - I especially like the smiling one. I love the orangutans - they are just so close to being human. Ive been dying to get to the zoo with my camera for a few months now. I must make a point of setting a day aside to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tess32 Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 (edited) I think the Gorilla missing a hand at Melb Zoo is G-Ann. There's not that many older gorillas, I think that's her. There's Yuska and Julia, Betsy (I think) died last year. The others are all youngies other than Rigo, who is the silverback. Menyaru is the young Orang, he's gorgeous. I've seen him annoy his father for hours on end. Edited March 12, 2011 by Tess32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
