   At Taronga Zoo today - there's a sequence of these shots, from the time the bottle was retrieved from the water, through opening it (!!!) and then finishing off the contents.  Will post once I've PP'd some more pics from today    70-300 G lens - really a bit slow for this sort of outing, but still got some good shots  *** When getting there is half the fun! ***

 I hope that she doesn't react as badly to Coke as my daughter... that would be ugly!!!
 Nice shot... I keep trying to persuade the family to go to the zoo, but so far they haven't taken me up on the offer...

 hehe - we've been meaning to go again for ages, and finally got off our respective behinds and did it     Joined up as Friends of the Zoo this time too, so I think there will be lots more visits still to come.
 It's all a bit of a mess there at the moment, with heaps of construction going on.  It's still a good day out though, if  you manage to dodge all the pushchairs!*** When getting there is half the fun! ***

 That's a great shot, well timed capture and nicely exposed too... Shows what that lens is capable of in skilled hands...
 Those prams are mean things aren't they? I sometimes wonder which side of the fence the animals really are...
 Good on ya for joing the FOTZ too, welcome from another animal nut   Aka Andrew
