Banham is always good for photo ops! They seem to have to have conifers in every enclosure but aside from that I'd had some lovely pics there!! I love the prairie dog enclosure cos its fenced in to stop them getting out except they tunnel under and get everywhere and all there is between u and them is a small low wooden fence, the otter and meerkats make great pics too there!
I'm up for it :D

And I werent too impressed with pensthorpe when I went too many bratty kids scaring the birds away, on a quiet day it would be good though I bet so no weekends really...

Hi. I cannot do the the weekend of 26th & 27th April as it is the East Anglian Game and Country Fair, at the Norfolk Showground. I may be able to do the following weekend, but I will not know until nearer the time (depends on Daughters moods and homework amounts!!!)
I agree that Banham Zoo is a decent place to visit for photography purposes, but some of the animals can get a bit noisy at times - I used to live opposite and we were always being woken during the night by strange noises, and at times they seemed rather too close.....

Hi Dunc, Techno is the guy who is organising this, and as he said that he is doing the MMFC on the 4th May, I kind of assumed that this would be on the 3rd...........
I should be able to do either day though, (depending on Daughter!)
Bye the way Dunc, where abouts is "10 miles from Banham" - I'm in Attleborough.
