Looks like there are still a few places left on the Knowsley Safari Park day that Sue, Moomike and I are going on in a few weeks time.
It comes highly recommended by moomike and I know we're all looking forward to it. At £125 a pop its not cheap but it should be a great day out:

Venue: Knowsley Safari Park (1 day) Event Description: Knowsley Safari Park is a superb location with some great exhibits. Our ‘Safari Experience’ day starts with an extended session photographing their herd of African Elephant with unique ‘over the barrier’ access to an extremely large and well landscaped enclosure. The Elephants will be encouraged by the keepers to have a morning mud bath so there will be plenty of opportunities for behaviour and action pictures.
Before lunch we spend time with Giraffes, Meerkat and Otters and then in the afternoon we will take to our safari Land Rovers and drive off the roads around the huge enclosures to get some really fantastic and natural looking shoots of things like Rhino, Cape Buffalo, Wildebeest, Fallow deer, Blackbuck, Lechwe, Eland and Ostrich.
We will get exclusive access to photograph the parks 120 strong troop of Baboons out of the vehicles through wide gauge wire fencing. We will also see Giraffe and finish the day with Tigers and an amazing chance to see the pride of Lions very, close up!
We have organised this day to compliment our workshops at Marwell, not only by being in a different part of the country but also by having some very different animals and opportunities.
Because of the nature of this event places are strictly limited so book now to secure a place.
