Welcome to another week of Travel Photo Thursday. Indy and I are getting settled into the new apartment, and loving it! I’d say we’re about 80% unpacked, and by the end of this weekend we should be pretty much settled. Of course, there are always things to do in a new place to make it home

I’ve encountered lots of wildlife during my travels, making memories I will never forget. Here are a few of my favorite shots.

A wild orangutan in the Borneo jungle…definitely the highlight of my 3 day jungle adventure…

A probiscus monkey, also taken in the Borneo jungle…

This beautiful kingfisher is another shot taken in the Borneo Jungle. These birds are blind, so the boat could sit right under the branch it was perched on, and we were able to snap away

Look Ma! No Hands…a hornbill at the Bali Bird Park…

Mom and Baby taken in Monkey Forest, Ubud, Bali…

These are just a few of the wonderful animal and bird shots I have taken while traveling, and they always manage to bring a smile to my face. Do you have a favorite animal shot taken while traveling?

Here are some links to help you plan your next animal adventure…

Uncle Tan Wildlife Adventures
Bali Bird Park

I’ve experienced all 3 of these adventures, and all should be affordable to the average budget traveler.
