Oh that sounds great. I'd recommend coming late July time.. we should have new Snow Leopard cubs by then
Er.. when it snows then yes. I have one here - [link]
But it's quite rare for that to happen here!

What do you use more your 55-200mm or 300mm?
Splendid shot! Love the colors (:

I very rarely use the 55-200 now. It's due for an upgrade but I don't have the money yet!
That 300 is used for 99.9% of my stuff
Thanks Sydney!

Oh really? Well I figured, but using a prime on wildlife just seems so restrictive xP
No prob ^^

Haha It can be, but I tend to use two little things called my legs to zoom
