It's been the first time in a long time that I have visited the zoo again. Of course the weather is getting nicer so the choice to go is made much easier. I grabbed my camera and drove to the Amersfoort Zoo, a place I have been going since I was about 3 and where I have been coming a lot the last 4 years to take pictures and follow the lives of some of the feline inhabitants of the zoo.
There was a large gap between the last time I went there and now and in that time gap something nasty happened. Tientsie, the male Siberian Tiger in the zoo everyone following my pictures and adventures in the zoo has come to know and love, died of a kidney infection a few weeks ago. He reached the age of 13 and since I have seen him for quite a few times it's a rather big personal loss for me. I liked Tientsie most together with Brooklyn, so it's a shame to see him go.
As for the pictures I took on my last zoo trip they can be found on my DeviantArt account.

Apologies
I read quite a refreshing and interesting post in 2 the Ranting Gryphon's journal just now. It's about whether or not people should apologize for things in life they had nothing to do with. It's quite an interesting read. Go check it out.
