 Liz and I had another charter to the Toronto Zoo today. Great day,
 sunny and warm.

 I know the back ground in the second one is bad, thus the title, but i
 was following
 the pair with the camera when the one tried to fight the other, so i
 had one chance.

Interesting pics indeed, agree on the background but the timing is very 
good - and like Train Zoo and that little cat, too. Looks  a nice day to 
be outdoors.

All cool shots, Dave.  I really like the monkey in silhouette.  I also
like the fighting peacocks.  The kids looking on in the background add
to it IMHO.

cheers,

Nice one of the tiger (for a cat shot, that is!). Strange the peacock one.
Not a great picture, but an interesting scene and well worth photographing
and showing.
