Local Zoo Photography - pic heavy

I get a yearly pass to the privately owned local zoo, it is by no means up with the funded zoo size, but i love it out there. Getting the opportunity to take photos of different animal types is great!
Some of my favorite shots

Stunning photography! I love the pics of the Lion and snake in the last post. Hope you share more later. =]

Fabulous pics!!! Love the first one, an emu (?) and the full face frontal of the lion, with the gold sleepy eyes.

I'm not sure if you're looking for critique, but these are the few things that immediately jump out at me.

Very much like the first shot of the emu - this is where selective grayscale work is impressive. I don't think it works very well with the others though (sorry).
The macaw shot is lovely, but your Photoshopping is very obvious. Lots of clone work in that one I can see.
I really like the llama shot. The dingo shot is also very nice, although something is distracting me on the right.

Really nice portfolio, I'd like to see more.

There is a nice private z00 in Mendon, Massachusetts named Southwick z00. We br0ught the kids there 0nce and it was really a w0nderful place, I fell in l0ve with the baby capybaras and wanted t0 smuggle 0ne 0ut! I l0ve guinea pigs and they remind me 0f en0rm0us guinea pigs, L0L. I wish I had the ph0t0graphy skillz t0 whip 0ff a few sh0ts like these, there.
