Catching some rays


On a recent trip to San Diego in March, I took quite a few pictures of meerkats at the San Diego Zoo, located at 2920 Zoo Drive, San Diego, Calif., where they have a large mob of meerkats in their African exhibit.
Meerkats have become a popular attraction since the show Meerkat Manor on Animal Planet, introduced a million weekly viewers to the fuzzy little family of meerkats known as the Whiskers.
Two meerkats (above) basque in the warm afternoon sun as two others forage for food.






Meerkats are careful to keep an eye out for predators and have several guards that stay alert to warn of any danger from the sky as well as on the ground.
