Thirsty

It was a balmy 50 degrees with a little wind but lots of sunshine so I took off to the zoo. Got some wonderful shots last year at the zoo and today was no different. Just missed the shot of him in the tree as I was walking to his enclosure. He's over getting a drink of water so I don't think his tongue is directed at me......maybe the fly on his bottom

Thanks for stopping in and having a peek...I enjoy looking at all your photos
