On September 7, our giant panda matriarch Bai Yun was 18 years old! It’s hard to believe that in September 1996, this beautiful youngster made her debut in San Diego. Between her and adult male Shi Shi, they literally won the hearts of people all over the world! Born in China in 1991 at the Wolong Giant Panda Center, she was Wolong’s first captive-born panda! Her name in Chinese means “white cloud.” Over the past 13 years, Bai has contributed greatly to the San Diego Zoo’s giant panda research program. We have learned many aspects of panda husbandry, including how to monitor panda estrus cycles, in-depth looks at the development of a giant panda fetus through ultrasound, and experiencing the birth of her first cub, Hua Mei. Everything we have asked of her she has given us because of the strong trusting bond she has with her keepers. She is truly a remarkable panda! I have watched this girl grow up since 1996, and even now, as she turns 18, she still is beautiful, and there are moments when her “young, prankish” side comes out! I remember in the early days sitting down in the panda yards on my breaks and hanging out with her. Bai was always good for a conversation or two! Then afterward, she would make me laugh with her playful antics, rolling around, doing somersaults, and then looking over at me just to make sure I was paying attention! ![]() We can’t give her an ice birthday cake, as she is busy being Mom to her cub #5. So, happy birthday, Bai Yun! Thank you for all you have given us. You have become a very important ambassador for your species, raising awareness of giant pandas and adding hope for panda conservation in China. We honor you on your special day! Kathy Hawk is a senior keeper at the San Diego Zoo. Celebrate Bai Yun |

The zorki was a leica clone and often looks similar to the ones i posted previously. If the lens comes off of it, it may be a leica knock off. This is the Zorki 1a which was introduced circa 1948 the rangefinder itself was built in just like the leica it copies. On rangefinder camera, as opposed to a simple viewfinder like the old kodak instamatics, you see several windows on the body front which are that of the range finder. Note the similarity to the leica IIIf that i showed earlier? ![]() interesting historica tidbit for you. The Zorki was similar to the russian FED camera, which i have, but FED doesnt stand for Feyodor but are the initials of the company founder and founder of the KGB From one of my resources ..The Zorki camera was an improved version of the earlier FED (Felix Edmundovich Dzerjinski, founder of the Soviet secret police) that was an copy of the German Leica II..." yes the leica digilux 4 is $$$ but for about 200 less the panasonic is just about the same exact body and innards. I think the leica version has a few more bells and whistles with the firmware in it but they both produce similar results |
