Look at those stripes DSC_3409 - a photo on Flickriver

            Image taken at Busch Gardens, Tampa FL.  Just when you thought I was finished uploading images from Busch Gardens, here is another one :)  I only have two more to upload from the Thanksgiving day trip.  I like to spread out images from my trips so I don't loose the backyard beauties in the mix.  I'm saving my favorite pic from the trip for last.  

From Busch Garden's edge of Africa area, you are able to see a lot of the animals that visitors are able to get up close and personal with when they take the Serengeti Safari tour.  You just can't get very close and you don't get to feed the Giraffes .  That tour is offered for a separate charge, I forgot the price but it's not horribly expensive if one is interested.  

I did not participate safari tour during my Thanksgiving trip.  Although, I have gone on the night safari with Jack Hanna twice before.  One of these days I may participate in a day tour. 

Anyway, with my 150-600 mm lens I was able to pull these guys in for a closer look.  I love their stripes and I can see how it would be very confusing to a predator in the wild if there were a bunch of these guys running. 

Now what do you suppose that the one in the middle is looking at?   

Have a wonderful week ahead and happy snapping.
