This past weekend, I was in Omaha attending the annual meeting of Berkshire Hathaway. On Sunday, I had a few hours to kill before heading to the airport and home and spent some time at this well-known zoo ...and there were some interesting characters...

I think this looks a bit like Andy after one of those gigantic rib dinners...

Windoze, buddy - is that you up there trying to sneak another gorilla shot?

Hey, Steve...ever see anyone as pretty as me in California?

And what, exactly, do you think you're looking at, buddy???

And finally, anyone who doesn't like these shots can just bite me...

    Excellent series! My fav is that leopard (or jaguar?) shot, I think that one really stands out.

    I like the cat too. But then I'm a leo, so that's to be expected. The fat guy got a laugh as well. Nice stuff!
