Now, I am not an expert on birds so don’t actually know what this is, but it’s definitely an ugly looking bird, trying to do what it can with a bit of preening.
This sealion was lazing on the edge of it’s pool at Chester Zoo. It didn’t seem bothered that I was there snapping away so I made the most of it. Converted to monochrome in Adobe Lightroom.
This character was running around it’s enclosure at Chester Zoo. With the 300mm prime I had to get the composition right by moving my feet rather than zooming in and out. The image was then converted to monochrome using Adobe Lightroom.
