Yorkshire Wildlife Park

Another Easter trip out was with some friends to Yorkshire Wildlife Park near Doncaster. We saw lots of animals - polar bears, meerkats, mongooses, lions, leopards, tigers, wallabys, lemurs who were very friendly and lots more. The highlight of the day for me was seeing the wallabys and hearing the lion roar as we walked back to the car park . . . there is something really powerful about hearing a lion ROAR!

Sadly I did not take many photos, but here are a few of the friendly wallabys

A good friend of ours celebrated his 30th birthday a few weeks ago and when asked what he wanted to do to celebrate, he said he wanted to go to the Zoo.

We waited for a lovely sunny day and off we went all packed into the car for a day out at the zoo. When we arrived this is what we found...

A giant otter

A tall Giraffe

A Scruffy Camel

An elegant Zebra

A blurry Rhino
