Hey Ken,
Nice bit of natural history captured here. First thing that caught my eye here was the short trunk on junior - kinda cute!
If there's no typo above, your camera settings here perplex me a bit - 1/4000s? Kinda curious what was behind that...
Cheers...

Brad,
Thanks very much for your comment.
I am very lazy when it comes to changing settings, and generally leave the IDX on ISO 800. Most of my adjustments in the field are limited to F Stop and EV, I also like to have a fast shutter speed as I normally hand-hold.
