I had initially intended this blog only to showcase images of animals/bird/etc. that I saw only out in the open (wild so as to say), but slowly I have started adding images from Zoological gardens and Safari Parks because I might never get to see some of those animals in the wild and given that I don't have enough equipment I can get better photos under these conditions.
More over being an architect myself, I've been bitten by an interest in the design and layout of these parks.

Yes Maya, rightly noted. The crimson really is Awesome!!
(Though I have to say that I'm sorry that this snap is of a very poor quality and does no justice to this beauty)
