This post is image heavy, so I'm cutting it. If you want to see them, you might have to let the images load.

Picture of Smokey, investigating a lava lamp. This was take a few weeks ago - she was fascinated by the way it moved.

The zoo, where I went because I haven't been to a zoo since I was a very little girl. I'm not sure I approve of zoos, but they do a job and I do like animals.

A Komodo dragon. I was quite a way away, but luckily have a very good camera with an excellent zoom.

Otters (not a very good photo, I didn't want to use a flash in case it upset them). For [personal profile] legionseagle.

Meerkats!

Sloth. Not a very good picture because it was very hot and wet in the Rainforest World and my lens kept fogging up.

We never got to see the bearded pigs, it was a very cold day and they stayed in their den (very sensibly). However, here is a picture of a large pig which I took at Bede's World, when I went to stay with a friend.

Basically, I went to the zoo, and I photographed everything that moved. A lot of things didn't show themselves because it was cold, and because Gorilla Kingdom was closed due to one of the gorillas having given birth overnight.
