On May 3rd, I ventured to Wildlife Prairie Park Zoo near Edwards, IL. I spent most of the morning and early afternoon photographing some of the animals at this zoo with my Canon 5D Mark III and Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.0-5.6 II L IS lens. It was another superb spring day to be outdoors. Once again, I was able to capture some great shots of the animals on this day as was the case last summer as well seen here. I've added photos I shot from this particular day below:
An amazing bald eagle
A goat posing for a photo!
I was quite happy to finally photograph a peacock at this zoo...
Love this shot!
Not one, but two bald eagles in one shot!
I shot quite a few shots of the peacocks that were out-n'-about of course...
Quack, quack, quack...
Magnificent!
The goats really cooperated on this morning!
A close-up of the bald eagle!
A chipmunk ran out in front of my path and posed for a quick photo!
One of the most photogenic animals to photograph indeed!
I thought this was a cool shot as well...
Quite a photogenic goat!
Wowsers, thanks to the sun angle!
Another duck...
A noisy chicken
Ducks, were quite plentiful at this zoo...
Another peacock shot!
I took way too many photos of these guys...
"On the move"
A wolf
Another neat shot!
One more to end the day on...
Another successful day of photography in the books. I'll update once again when I find some more down time to venture outdoors once again...
