fly on my tongue, originally uploaded by Pete Connolly.

Last Febuary, we took a trip back to Dublin to see my Ma. Naturally, we had to go to Dublin zoo to show the boys the animals, get some awareness of the size, colour and what not of the real thing - something we can’t do here unless we drag ourselves to Longleat or London. This chappie, the Sumatran Tiger, was phleming away in his compound like the best of them. Just like a domestic cat who smells something interesting, like fish. Or steak, prawns, chicken or any of the myriad other foods our cats shout at you about when you try to make dinner.

    An Irish Tiger!
    Love the light on his flanks and shoulders.
