That's a nice daddy!

Lovely photo Christophe, it's amazing to think that those tiny chicks grow to be such a huge bird!

Yes Harriet The most amazing is to think Willy was a small baby a long long very long time ago

What a great pic of the ostriches! Here at the NC zoo, we never see such little chicks just the big adults they will grow into one day!

they are so ridiculously tiny!! amazing. (I really want want one.)

What a beautiful photo! The baby chicks are so cute! :)

Kelsey, I'm planning a trip to the NC zoo hopefully on the 29th of this month, weather permitting. We went a couple of years ago and I loved it! But this year I got that telefoto lens! And when I went before I didn't collect animals, so I completely passed by the giftshops! This time I will be ready with my drool bib on.

Tim those pictures are so beautiful! I love the donkeys and the bird. What kind is he?

Thanks everyone, I had a great time there. The bird is a Grey Crowned Crane, and the donkeys are Somali Wild Ass
There is a small video of them I took at [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

Thanks for the link to your video Tim, they're so frisky!! I watched the other animals you had on there too, the tiger was gorgeous

I've just spent some time to look at your pics on Flickr. There is a lot of very very good pics

I agree with Ana, the pic with the two Somali wild ass is my favorite

WONDERFUL
All of them

Keep them comming, friends

No one has mentioned the pig I guess it's a bit boring to like that one best, when there's so many more exotic animals to choose from, but I think the pig is really cute Thank you for the great photos, the animals all look gorgeus and the pictures sure do them justice!

Great video! They look like they are having so much fun

Yes it was very good to see them looking so happy and healthy. They are a critically endangered species

I really like the grey crowned crane!
