So here we go, a little late i'm afraid but here are my photos from my visit before Christmas on the 23rd December 2012. The zoo was incredibly quiet so it was nice to see the lions and have the zoo pretty much to myself.
As soon as arrived I headed straight up to Zuri and Safi, safi was busy smelling around so it was a bit of a delay before she came to see me, but as you can see from the order of the photos Zuri was the first to come and see me, and came down from his hill where he was stood.
Below are a few photos possible one of my favourite set of Zuri for a very long time. He really does look superb and you can see the full extent of his mane. with the lighter tinge through the center of his mane where it gets a lot darker around the edge. What a magnificent lion eh?
As you can see Safi did come out to say hello from their house. These two have definately been a lot more active during the winter weather, but they do seem to enjoy it more than anything. As you can see it did get rather dark before I left so below are two of my last photos from the visit.
I hope you have all liked these photos, and there will be a lot more to follow this year I promise! I really cannot wait to see them this year, and i'm sure I will a lot.
