This is the reason why I try to visit zoos early in the morning and stay until they close for the evening. This tiger had been sleeping all day, but finally decided to go for a swim just minutes before the zoo closed to the public.

It was so quiet, one could hear the sound of the water down below, but such a shame that only three other people got to see this beautiful cat enjoying a peaceful moment in the pond since most visitors already cleraed the parking lot.

NOTE: Animals might snooze most of the day but will eventually pose for someone... So might as well be you the one catching them in the act on your camera! ;)

Here's another shot of this swimming tiger from a different angle: [link] with a vertical composition.
