We just had a early spring snow, ~10-16 inches (25-40 cm). Luckily the day before was beautiful and I had a chance to spend some time at our zoo, such is our crazy weather.
Spider Monkey -- a little soft, but not bad for handheld indoors with no flash
Camera: Canon EOS 7D
Exposure: 0.005 sec (1/200)
Aperture: f/2.8
Focal Length: 200 mm
ISO Speed: 200
Orangutan - an 8 year old male, just introduced to our group.
Trumpter Swans -- they were being fed and decided to display for the guy doing the feeding. When he wasn't interested or impressed (these are very large birds), they started dancing with each other.

Re: Fun at the local Zoo
Nice shots Bryan. Call me sentimental but I'm a sucker for the swans. Save it for next Valentine's day and maybe you can win a new camera like Bobo did with his similar shot here: I am a finalist...
I also like the pensive look and lighting in your shot of the spider monkey.
