Fascinating pictures,particularly those for pandas.You are so lucky as when I went there they were all in cages,eating bamboo.By the way,I'm afraid the sign you saw everywhere is a safty sign,alerting visitors to watch their steps instead of drawing their attention to birds because the stairs are pretty steep.And thank you for your photos!
