I have lots from yesterday. The Munchkin treated me to a photo day at the British Wildlife Centre in Surrey which was epic! One of the keepers took us into some of the enclosures so we could get close ups without bars/netting getting in the way. The foxes and otters were so tame and unphased they would brush past us. If you get the chance I'd thoroughly recommend one of their days - they do an owl day too if mammals are not your bag. The red sqiggles were a sod to catch. Sometimes they will pose down near the walkways but for us they stayed way up high.

As you can see a lot of my shots are a bit soft as my 70-300 is the cheap version but considering it's all pretty much entry level kit I was pretty happy with at least a few of my shots on each of the animals we covered.

Have a look at my Flikr account to see the rest.
