Trio of trouble

This one requires some explanation. When we got to the tigers yesterday, all of this group was asleep in a heap. We were pretty much the first people there so they all gave us a drowsy once over and flopped back down except for Bala. (The one on the left.) I have decided Bala is 1.) the most active of this group and 2.) a bit of an attention hound. She not only got up a good while before her group, she followed US around as we made our way around the exhibit.

My husband noticed her watching him and decided to play hide and seek with her a bit as he does with our housecats. This involves ducking back and forth behind a corner mostly.

He had her complete attention.

She must have made some noise (we didn't hear a thing) because after a few minutes of this the other three suddenly sprang to their feet and joined her. I'm sorry to say I missed Lani on the top of the cliff completely but I got this shot barely in time.

MGM is lucky they can't reach the bridge...
