Not the best shot I've ever taken but certainly a memorable one as this came bounding towards me on Christmas day lol
Quite an expressive face of this beautiful Bengal tiger from Busch Gardens in Tampa, Florida. Thanks.

Burchell’s Coucal is also often referred to as the Rain Bird due to it calling before, during and after rain. The call sounds like water bubbling out of a narrow-necked bottle.

HIgh on a hill outside of Jackson, Wyoming stood 12 bull elk. It was just before dark and it was snowing and of course there was ground fog but I was so excited to get to view these magnificent beasts lined up atop the hill I jumped out of the car and stood there without my coat in the freezing weather for about 10 minutes shooting. I forgot all about the weather! Smile. Just look at that royal elk on the right side. One of the tines was broken and dangling from some mighty battle.
THANKS for sharing the experience
