Another day at the zoo [01117065378]

I visited Omaha's Henry Doorly Zoo today after dropping Michael off at the airport. Here are a few of the photos I took.
Photos from my recent trip to Canada [01124916046]
Here are some photographs from my recent trip to British Columbia,
along with Ingrid and her folks. We first went to Victoria, visiting several
nearby beaches and the Buchant gardens. Later we went to Whistler, a ski
village north of Vancouver. I took only a few photos there. Finally, we spent
the last day and a half in Vancouver itself, but I didn't take any pictures.
Ingrid has more photos from Whistler and Vancouver, perhaps she'll put them
online someday.

Henry Doorly Zoo [01237650858]
(M)(L)Butterfly
We recently took a trip to the Omaha zoo. This was my first
trip to the new butterfly exhibit with my 105mm macro lens, and I'm pleased
with some of the shots I got. We also stopped in the Night World, Aquarium,
and Jungle.
Frankfurt Palmengarten [01271837641]
(M)(L)Goslings sleeping
Here are a few of the things that caught my eye on our second visit to the
Frankfurt Palmengarten
(botanical garden).
The photos that were the most fun to take were the goslings; I was
surprised that the parents (who were right nearby) didn't take much notice
of me, even when I got within 2-3 feet of their babies! The little ones
barely noticed me either. I took 200 images of them alone, so it was hard
picking just 3 to show here.

(M)(L)Madagascar Panther Chameleon
I recently bought myself a late Christmas present: a Canon 300mm f/4L IS lens.
Today I played hookey and went to the Omaha zoo to try it out.
