Hi All,

Finally took my 50th Birthday present from my wife last Friday.

A day out at the Wildlife Heritage Foundation in Smarden....

I cannot say how much I enjoyed myself. We had a great guide, Nigel showing us their cat breeding programme. Never been 6 inches from a Tiger before.....quite something!

Oddly, the smaller cat's were the most vicious!

The photo opportunities were endless. I hope you don't mind me sharing a few of my snaps from the day.

Davey

Congrats and beautiful photos. The last one is simply beautiful and seriously evokes emotion - something almost impossible from me!

Hi Chaps,

Thank you for all of the kind comments and wishes.

It's easy to forget with these cat's that you are a potential snack...... :poke:

So beautiful and so deadly!

Davey
