Sumatra Tiger

What a gorgeous tiger I said to Sparky when he showed me his pix. She was a beauty for sure, he said. I had choices of tigers I was seeing. Being so close to them, were you feeling you were in a bit of a fix? No, he told me. I used a long lens to capture this gorgeous being. Which jungle were you visiting? I queried, truly wanting to know. I was in Sumatra, a large island in Indonesia, pretty from shore to shore. I asked if this tiger was energetic, tired, fast, young or slow. I did not get that close he told me, because she is an avid carnivore.

Pretty wise kid, I'd say. Sumatran tigers are truly gorgeous.
