I have always been fascinated by animals and how they live in their own habitat… I love the photos and adventures inNational Geographic as it has always been one of my favorite websites/TV shows. So, when saw the prompt for our Photo Challenge on Wildlife, I was thrilled. I had a lot of fun culling photos for this week’s Weekly Photo Challenge on Wildlife and the bigger challenge was deciding what to leave out. I had a series of highly entertaining shots from the Gorilla quarters and would probably do a post sometime on their shots alone. I enjoyed watching the Nyalas and the Mountain goats, the lions and the zebras and all the other animals in between…

The lions were lazily enjoying the warm sun, and the elegant giraffe and zebras posed as if I were a paparazzi gathering shots for a lifestyle magazine. In case you are wondering, I took a trip to the Bronx Zoo in New York and spent time visiting the wildlife; they were equally curious about the human eyes staring at them. Somehow, we were all waiting for each other to make the next move… Staring and waiting, gazing and wondering. What were your experiences with your wildlife moments and shots? Enjoy the selection.
