LOL@Raymond :o))) That's some zoo you have Walter! This is a bit fruity if you ask me though....gay lions? Whatever next? Skateboarding Alsatians, or maybe squirrels...
Máire Uí Mhaicín16-Oct-2009 17:06
A good capture that reveals their feline nature.

Raymond16-Oct-2009 15:51
PS... the first gay lions I've ever seen... oh well, to each his own crank, right ?
Raymond16-Oct-2009 15:49
First the turtles, now the lions... it must be in the air... I'm moving to San Diego this afternoon... I want to breathe some of that air too ! Great shot Walter... :)))))))
