Chester Zoo 7
by Parry on Apr.07, 2010, under New Photos, Wildlife
Well, 7th visit to Chester Zoo in the last year, think we can safely say we like this place
This time we spent about 2 hours at the Jaguar house, but that pesky melanistic one still won’t come outside…
and of course we had to head over and see the new arrival of the giant otter, who for his size is FAST… managed to get a couple of photos before he went and hid at the other side of his enclosure
and i missed Ben Fogle, who was pretty much stood behind me (although about 10 ft behind me) while i was photographing the lions

Chester Zoo 5

So another trip to Chester Zoo and as the name suggests this was the 5th visit. The aim was to get the animals we hadn’t on previous trips, this included the Jaguars, Spectacled Bears, Rhinos. Well we got 2 out of the 3, and still couldn’t get the black jaguar, and the bears were in hiding, but we also got the usual suspects, the tigers and leopards

Chester Zoo (snow)
by Parry on Jan.11, 2010, under New Photos, Wildlife
Well after our 1st visit was thwarted due to Health & Safety, we went back a few days later… Not really that Snowy in the animal compounds but all the animals were really active, probably trying to stay warm…
I would advise making a visit to the zoo in winter, it’s a lot less crowded…
