King and his Queen by

Watching 100’s of people come and go at the lion section of Dubbo Zoo paid off, after sleeping all day, they started walking around. When he stood over her, and both looked our way, I was in awe with the treat they were giving me for my patience!

I hope you enjoy this one, Open Plains Zoo is well worth a look if your in the Dubbo area.

Canon 50D, 325mm. Available Large!

  • Thanks very much Gail, I heard alot of people complaining they always sleep.. They should maybe read up a little about them, they naturally sleep 20-22 hours a day :)
