Thanks for your kind comments Sharon, Hannah and Brinn. I was lucky that day - she sat still for the longest time, quite near the window, so I had plenty of time to get the settings and composition right! #119236Sharon E. Lowe May 26, 2019

Thank you for your kind comments Sharon, Gary, Debi and Dottie. It's a thrill to be living so close to the San Diego zoo now (I can walk there), so I take photos of these wonderful creatures all the time. This shot is one of my favorites... #131768Jean Papo July 07, 2003
