Very nice selection of shots, especially the two otter ones.
My brother has been there and said it's great, his wife bought him a photo day as a christmas present which he's looking forward to doing sometime this year.
I want to try and get a chance to go there too next time I visit the family in Crawley :)

Thanks for your comments.:)
A tip for anyone going there on a non photo day .The keepers do a talk
on each animal enclosure every half hour.I found the animals come in close
to feed and bang you can get some very nice shots.Without a camera you could walk around in an hour which to some non photographic members of
the family could be frustrating.
The shots you can get look like they were taken in the wild .I am going to go back on a photographic day apparently you can get inside some of the enclosures with a keeper.
By the way yaken a look at your website you have some cracking animal
shots on there.Love the Boxer
