Photo Hunt Saturday--Happy
It looks like there are some earlybirds for this week, so I thought I'd go ahead and post this week's photo early. This week's theme is: Happy. I went for the facetious approach. I took this photo at the Fort Worth Zoo in February of 2006. The quality is not quite as good as I usually get, because of a slight tremor on this shot, but this shot was the "money shot" in the bunch: definitely high on content. This mother lion had four cubs, all of which wanted to play... and she clearly did not. Eventually, she roared and stalked off to another spot in the enclosure for some "me" time! I can relate, sister kitty, I can relate...

Well at least the cub looks like he's happy being around the mum :)

It's a good thing you got your shot in as long as the family life was happy - mum's grumpiness doesn't even show! Great photo! :)
Have a good weekend!

We love sarcasm around here. This one could be labeled "Happy? NOT!" Wonderful shot!

I just discovered your blog. Love it. Mine's out there, but don't remember my url. Thanks for posting way down the page about companies that test on animals. I think I have almost every product in my house. Needless to say that won't happen again.
Keep up the good work!
