Zoo Photos
15 August 2006 11:39Yesterday, while I was at work, my cousin took her family to the zoo. These are some of their photos.
I lust after my cousin's husband's digital Nikon and 70-350mm lens.

Diamond Firetail Finch having a birdbath.

Double-bar finch at the birdbath

Mallee fowl scraping more leaf litter onto his nesting mound.

Dingo. One of Polly's ancestoral line.

Big Cats.

2: The wombat picture makes you long to pick it up ang hug it, which would probably annoy it no end.:D
