    BWC - Saturday 7th April

    Hi all - decided to risk getting rained on, and went to the British Wildlife Centre today. Mixed bag of shots, but only saw 1 Red Squirrel - not sure where they went!

    Anyway, here goes...

    Spent some time indoors, with the mice and a flashgun... All House Mouses, various poses...

    then moved on to watch the Otters 'play fighting'...

    then finished up at the Foxes (in a brief spell of sunshine!)...

    Might post some more once I've processed the rest, but this looks to be the pick of the crop (AFAIK!).

    Hope you like them, but C&C welcome.

    All the best, Mike.

    UPDATE - these appear to have posted a bit soft (again). The originals look great on my PC!

          Well, I've tried! I opened an account, verified it, now I can't access it! 500px just will not let me sign in... I enter my details, and just get returned to the sign in screen! I'll keep trying!

          Put 'Mouses' on purpose to see who'd moan! LOL.

          Cheers guys. M.

            Great set Mike - not going to pick a fave as I like them all. Good to see that the fox has made a full recovery. As you probably gather, I was there Friday, and yes the squiggles were very quiet (unlike the kids!). Ive got some puter probs so cant find my best shots lol

              Hi Mike

              Guess what ? - -Dee and I were at BWC too all day yesterday and I reckon that at some point we may well have been standing very near each other, particularly at the otters, as we both have very similar shots of the two youngsters playing.

              Having now been 3 times since the new year, we also decided to join yesterday - should have done it before

                LOL - Surely the time is coming when we actually meet up, not just randomly attend the same place at the same time! Hope you enjoyed your day out! All the best, Mike.

                  The contentment of the sleeping fox - great expression on his face.
