Leslie Manna has given me some terrific information about animals. I love that. Leslie has also challenged me to try for different shots showing this information. All male lions have black tips on their tails thought to be used for communication. Here's the black tip Les...I got it! (Not taken today.) I have 8 billion lion pictures so used one from March.
Love that tail!! Quite the guy . .wanting his drink of water in privacy,no doubt!! Great photo, Margaret! And check out the muscles in his leg! Great detail.
That is a great observation and so nice of Les to give you this advice. the picture looks geat..so different from the once you posted before not that they were not great...don't get me wrong please..I love the all.
If I could choose a way to die being mauled by one of these beauties would be it...so powerful, beautiful and amazing. As it is will probably die in my sleep in my seventies...boring.
Great shot and great info. Please don't be offended. My Internet connection is all messed up and I've had a devil of a time staying connected long enough to comment.
Oh, my dear Maggie - I don't know which is more amazing: you, or your photographs!! I'd say both are exceptional. :-D By golly you did it! There it is, clear as day, the black tippity-tip of his tail. I also like what's going on in this shot; the "freeze" of the water droplets is great. Was he drinking?? Thanks for brightening my morning, Les X
@ldpaul Linda, I love the community. Never expect comments but am thrilled to view and talk with the great people on here. I hate it when my internet isn't working. I feel for you . :-)
Sac zoo is small, but rather nice. I really loved all the water features! So many animals have their own waterfall, stream, or pool in their enclosure and the tiger sitting in the glass window was awesome! (pics on FB). I fed a giraffe and watched two tortoises having homosexual sex! For a measly $10, it was a grand experience! :-)
@tabbycat You fed the giraffe...Sounds terrific, full of excitement and love. :-) Eyes, ears....it's all the same. I thought you knew something about the eyes that I didn't.
