Hi guys

Went up to Basel zoo while on vacation, and mainly got birds, as there are a lot of storks and herons using the place for nesting.

Full gallery HERE (external link) including other animals
Exif intact, but all with 7D and 100-400mm

Enjoy, Chris

Thanks Don

There were a nice bunch of wild birds around, but I think I still prefer Zuirich zoo.
