Today whilst visiting the Adelaide Zoo I had the opportunity to photograph some of the wonderful work that goes on behind the scenes.
First was assisted raising of a squirrel monkey, 3 months old

Next item for the day was to observe the white faced gibbon being given an ultra sound to check to see if she was pregnant which turned out to be negative

Then it was off to look atthe first red kangaroo the zoo has ever raised

Next door they were raising a yellow footed rock wallaby

This was far more interesting than the pandas!

the wallaby sure is a lot cuter than the roo !!

Football supporters have known that for ages!

Lovely interactive shots and great DOF & eyes on the last , sure I could see your reflection if it was enlarged - did you do one of the tours ?

good to hear your on the invite list as the quality of your work deserves to be published - you should certainly be doing calendars and postcard like your mate !

Thanks for the kind words.

Some really interesting shots - I like behind the scenes

Very very nice shots,

I'm a bit of a sucker for this kind of topic.

And for the record I think the Roo was atleast equally as cute sa the wallaby!

The roo and wallaby are both gorgeous - I want one of each!! Monkeys are just evil.

Seriously though, great to see some behind the scenes photos.
