    We went on a day trip to Woburn Safari park and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Here are just a few of the piccies we took.

    Cute, cute, cute. I love the bear, that's one of my favorite creatures.
    Picture #3 couldn't have been better if you had posted those lionesses for the camera.

    Those lions are a cute variation to the "Hear no evil, see no evil and speak no evil" image that we all know.

    I enjoyed seeing the variety of animals that you showed here tonight. Animals make such good subjects.

    Will there be a Third Batch?...or even MORE? :D

    You caught the animals at their "most cutest!" Looks like that is a place I'd love to visit. I can't get over the lionesses and the baby monk.

    Awww. The monkeys are so cute! But what IS that animal on the photo underneath the two monkeys with the red ball? I can't make head from tail of it. :D

    Those elephant sculptures were certainly different. I want one! (Well, if I had room.)

    Droopy the 'pig' beneath the monkeys is a Red River Hog and the photograph under that is a piccie of two red bellied lemurs. :-D

    Haha Droopy, you and I think alike. I have stared at that photo for 3 minutes now and I STILL can't figure it out :eek:

    I love the lionesses photo Eils, perfect for a caption competition.

    You have an absolute talent for catching the right moment. We have plenty of those bears here in NC, but the other shots are more exotic. "Lions and Tigers and Bears, oh my!"
