Love those shots.

Unfortunately Thailand had to close the biggest open zoo in Thailand during Covid-19.

I was lucky the weather was just recovering after a day and half of rain. Most animals wandered outside and that made the photo shooting operation easier.

Hopefully in Belgium, Pairi Daiza stayed open during Covid-19 (with some strong restrictions) but the park is vast. Still a great escape for the young children during those difficult times.

Thank you all.

Cool! I've never seen a white tiger in real life.

Hi Rob, this zoo is a delight to visit, certainly around this time where very little people visit it during the week.

Morning ecstasy, from yesterday. I missed quite some shots yesterday due to the condensation on the camera view finder as my breath was directed upward due to the covid mask requirements and the cold temperature. Hopefully, i was not using a Canon with eye controlled focus point :D .


About the white tigers:

They have two of them (most probably a couple). This one was apparently bored or waiting to be fed (from July). Do not worry, they have green areas, pools and plenty of space to exercise.
