A sunny day prompted me to head for the zoo to see what was stirring. Today it was the lions that were out and about sunning and grooming each other.

No & that's one thing that attracted me to their fenced environ ment. I'm glad I had my 18-200mm zoom aboard as I needed the full 200mm to get close enough. I have had success shooting through plexiglass but it's not easy. Example:
