sumatran tiger at 6:29am

I was here on June 1, which is the first day of their summer hours. They move the opening time from 9am to 7am. But members get in one hour early, so I bought a membership online, allowing me a 6am entry! Got there around 6:20am - well worth it. In one hour of shooting, from 6:30 to 7:30 in the morning, I got some of my best shots ever at this zoo of fennec fox, lion, tiger, cheetah, spec bear, maned wolf. Is 6am a record for earliest opening time of any zoo?
