This upcoming week is going to be exciting! I'm taking a road trip with my hubby and we're going to be visiting 1 new zoo and 3 that we've already have spent extensive time there photographing.
On Sunday, we plan to do the Ft. Worth Zoo and the Dallas Zoo. On Tuesday, the plan is to do the Dickerson Park Zoo in Springfield MO and then on Good Friday, we'll do Henry Doorly in Omaha.
In between the zoo visits I will be visiting my little sister in Dallas and my uncle in Cissna Park, IL. It's going to be an amazing week.
We love the Ft. Worth Zoo for its big cats. The Malayan Tiger above is from there. The Dallas Zoo is great for lizards... yeah, I like them, too. Tuesday will find us tracking down Dickerson Park Zoo's Malayan Tiger. We thought we were going to find an Indochinese Tiger there, but recent updates indicate that their's too is a Malayan Tiger. Ft. Worth thought its tigers were Indochinese until last year when the pair had cubs and the DNA testing indicated that they were indeed Malayan. This is going to be so cool! Finally, we'll end the trip with Henry Doorly Zoo and its big cats. I've got some of my signature images from this zoo and can't wait to get back to shoot more. I am totally stoked.
Sounds like a great trip. There are Malayan tigers at all of the zoos you mentioned. Dickerson Park now has a breeding pair . . . they received the male father from Cincy. Enjoy!
