More pictures as promised from my visit to the Washington DC National Zoo last month. I took lots and lots of pictures of birds but I believe that the flamingos were most photogenic, don’t you think so?

I was fortunate enough to visit the Washington DC National Zoo last month while on my vacation trip to the Zoo. I snagged many pictures of various animals while I was there although I was being rushed to move on from exhibit to exhibit. I will be posting some themed pictures form some of the animals I managed to snap while I was there. First off a Panda Bear!

I call this one Panda Warrior

….and this ole Lazy Panda

Photo Featured on NEPA Poster

A photo I took earlier this yea of a Zenaida Dove foraging in Emancipation Park has been featured on a National Environment and Planning Agency (NEPA) bird shooting season poster. It was kinda cool when I was contacted through Flickr and asked if my photo could be used and to think when I first took the shot I had no idea what kinda bird it was, but my recent interest in birds has taught me a lot and is already paying off. Below is the section of the poster which features my photo and further below is the original.
