TassieD,
She was on her rock three times yesterday afternoon
The weather was very cool and overcast. No lure required.

Good to see that she is playing around, now if only the males would get in the pool and swim for us. By the way, there is a new baby rhino at Monarto - visit soon?
2nd shot for me.

#2 and #3 are great poses Fozzie. Interesting perspective that is an invitation to the viewer. Interesting that I am doing a shoot for the Cairns Wildlife Safari Reserve and the Sumatran tiger I was shooting took an instant dislike to me snarling and eventually lunging at the chain wire fence as i pressed my lens to the wire to try and get a clean image.
I can tell you it was quite frightening to have it get in my face to the point where I felt the warmth of it's breath. Lucky I had a clean change of underwear handy.
cheers
