Very nice shot! Is that a tongue out in the first pic I see? Looks like it was getting ready to lick the camera! :-)

Real pro shot, getting the subject matter up front always improves a photo.

I think so, it was in a big parklike area, at least they were used to the Ranger that guided us. Many of them came running when he imitated their call.
