Pandas

[John Holland]

Another stop on my China visit was in Chengdu (Chengdu is the start of the Silk Road). Here they have a Panda Research Center (one of four or five in the country). The Giant Pandas are the main attraction, but they also have the less timid and more active Red Pandas.

Two fine images. The red panda has a very intelligent look to him.

A fine pair indeed, and wonderfully photogenic.

Great photos and the red one looks grumpy to me, reminds me of someone, but ....................

Thank you Dave, Pete, and Ivar for your comments. The red panda was a bit agitated - it was feeding time and it was waiting on the handlers to finish getting the food prepped.
