Default National Zoo - Random shots (Part 2)

Yesterday I posted some random shots I took on my trip to the Zoo last month. Here is the second part:-

It's time to lie down after a hard day of posing for visitors and photographers.
Camel 002

That's his usual hang-out place.
Bat 001

He has a beautiful fur.
Hiena 001

Took this between some leaves, thus the blurry green thing.
Cat family 002

Hey! Hope you had a nice holiday..Sorry to miss some of your shots..still playing catch up here in DPS and not to mention that I have tons of work at the office..will get on to it..

Very nice set..you were able to capture the expressions of the animals..i know it is a zoo but it feels like their natural habitat..i like the blurriness of the last shot..my fave though is the bat..hmmn..maybe because I am fond of vampire stories..(lol..is the correlation too far-fetch? Guess I am just morbid..)

The bat is a cut above the rest, I like the selective coloring too. Seldom have I seen it work well with wildlife..but you seem to have pulled it off!
