- Many thanks ChrisNice set Russ. I really like the lion enclosure there, and the lions are ( mostly) right little posers aren't they?
I've not been up there in about 18 months, I must be due a visit before too long.a large extension to YWP is underway with extensive groundworks and a planned bridge to link the new areas to the existing one over the small river that currently forms a boundary to the Park
You could offer to "rent out" part of it, as temporary accommodation for some of the animals, think of the photo opportunities(thank goodness they are not extending closer to my back garden!
- good idea Chris, but they would have to be very quiet so as not to disturb my (very necessary) beauty sleepYou could offer to "rent out" part of it, as temporary accommodation for some of the animals, think of the photo opportunities
- Hi Ingrid, those two male lions appear to be close buddies and regularly pose on that hillock in their compound!Love the two lying together, they are handsome creatures aren't they. Have you seen anything of the brown bears recently, I had heard they were settling in well ?
- Many thanks Chris - I have noted your suggested date (6/4/19) for a possible Meet at YWP; hope to see you thenGreat shots Russ, I do enjoy watching the Lions posing on the hills. Last time I was there the Tigers were having a go at each other through the fence, was funny to see one go sprinting towards the fence as if it had a chance!
Nice set. Love the expression on the lioness's face and especially impressed you got a shot of a leopard. I've been to YWP twice and not even seen a leopard yet!
- I see several regular faces there on my visits, Foggy - but who can blame them!@Rustydon same here, by chance I found a Facebook group Friends of the Yorkshire Wildlife Park and there's some pretty good stuff in there although Facebook kills the quality. I'm sure some have the magic touch for the Leopards or just live there.
