A very cool image. I am impressed by its sharpness but I would try to reduce the green cast and perhaps darken the shadows a little to get a more nocturnal tone.

Thanks for the comments, which are much appreciated. The sharpness was courtesy of a small tripod, which I don't generally use for zoo work, but had decided that it would be worth using in this instance. I had already reduced the green cast significantly from the original, where it was (even more) fluorescent!
Anyway, here's another treatment of the same shot, based on your comments:
Thank you. I like this treatment even more and I note that you have managed to minimise that annoying red reflection too. If you keep it for next year's photo poll, I'll really have to up my game
