Walking past me

behinf the fence. It was quite tricky, and I had to take the shots I could get.

There are about five of them, and they do afternoon shows by showing peple how they catch snakes.

I have not been to one of those for some reason. I will have to go and check it out.

@grammyn Thanks Katy, it is not easy shooting through the fence. They are on the move all the time, so I am just lucky with some shots and many are culled ;-)
