They make the tigers work hard for their food, I usually don not wait for feeding time as they crowds are too big, but went on a Friday and not so many there.

Nice shots without glare from the glass.

They were taken from the new walkway, where you are level with the poles.

They sure do have to work for their food. Nice capture with full light. Was the lighting limiting you on the second where you only shot 1/200th? Just curious since the head is a little blurred.

i have been to this zoo,i travelled a good few miles too,the best zoo i have been to,and watching those huge tigers leap up those posts is truly awe inspiring ,when i went about 15 tiny black and white monkeys had escaped and were running riot all over the park and i got some really nice shots of those ,and the birds freely fly around also and are so tame ,really nice shots aswell,:)

Those tiny black and white monkeys are ring tailed Lemurs, and they did not escape, but are allowed the free range of the zoo park.
