Hi Alan ...
I don't like these at all. The fence between the viewer and the animals really detracts from the critters. Better would have been to get closer, stick a smaller lens through the fence, if at all possible, or get much closer to the fence and use whatever lens you had wide open or close to it, obscuring the fence completely. Baring those options, these are probably as good as you could get, and was a good exercise in hand holding longer lenses ... which you seem to have done quite well.
Others might like the idea of the fence being there, but, imo, it makes for very poor photographs.

Had a few hours walk this Saturaday and took some pictures. To my surprise,
I was able to take sharp pictures by handholding my 200mm & 300mm. Camera
shake used to be a problem with me so I usually had the tripod with me, but
not this time (left in the car because of the weight). Any comments welcome.
