Red Panda SelfieYesterday, September 20th was International Red Panda Day. We were fortunate this year to meet a lot of red pandas – especially on our Tennessee Zoocation and at the National Zoo’s SCBI. Today’s montage is dedicated to some of those gorgeous creatures including Rocco, Wendee, James, Wyatt, Amaya, Biru, Azizi and Jabari.  Here are seven fun things you may not know about red pandas.

CAPTIONWildlife photography is great fun – especially when you get amusing photos that cry out for captions. Here are some photos for you to enjoy and caption.  Feel free to share your wit with the rest of us on my website comments space.

For all of those camera enthusiasts out there, I’ll be running a Fall Foliage photography workshop at the Central Park Zoo on  October 19 from 8:30 to 10:30. I will arrange some special pumpkin and other activities so you can get great animal shots. Here is a link to last year’s photos from this event. Pumpkintastic! CAPTIONPLEASE

CC the SlothWhat a treat to introduce two out of town friends to the fun at the always terrific Staten Island Zoo. We got to meet a new young Ground Hornbill, along with old friends such as CC the sloth, Gregory the Fennec Fox, the fast growing Arctic Fox pups and of course, the popcorn smelling adorable, baby Binturong.  Thanks again to Vet and General Curator, Marc Valitutto for his time and energy.  We loved our visit (and will be back).SIZOO9.2014
