Hi Gale, nice shots. Lucky you to get a whole bunch of Heliconius charitonius and Dryas Julia at the same place. If I'm right, you're living in Cocoa Beach. If you don't mind, could you indicate to me where the zoo is. Nest time, I get down to New Smyrna, I will know a place to go shooting. Thanks.

Hi Dao,

Think I had the wrong lens for sure Dao. Thank you for the nice compliment.

The Brevard Zoo is located about 1-2 blocks off I-95 in Viera. I will have to find the exit # for you.

Here we go found the map.

Brevard Zoo, From I-95 -take exit # 191. East, 2nd light, turn left into the zoo. Intersection of Wicham Rd and Murrrell rd.

Hours are 10:00 AM-5:00PM daily.

Cost about $10.00 per adult. I get a yearly pass for $40.00 a year. Nice small Zoo.

Let us know when you can come down and perhaps Harry B and even Harris might be able to join and the Viera Wetlands is 10 min from the Zoo. :>))

Cheers
