#MySundayPhoto - robin & snake

This weekend, we took Ethan to West Midlands Safari Park. He loves animals, as do we, and it's the third time we've been around with him and every time, he gets more and more from it.

I have plenty of snaps I am proud of and ones that capture our day and Ethan perfectly, which I will share in the week, but for #MySundayPhoto, I wanted to share some of the animal photos we captured.

I couldn't choose just one, so here are my favourites - starting with one of a robin that just flew down in front of me, to land on the fence, and luckily I had my DSLR hanging around my neck so I could capture him just in time...


A slithery suspect...


My husband has shared a couple of his snaps taken yesterday too, which I think are also pretty great.

    That's a great photo of the little robin, normally I can never capture birds as they just fly away too quickly for me. Must be quieter in future :) Hope you all enjoyed your trip to the safari park. I've not done a lot of animal parks with the kids as my son (who's 6) has never been that interested but my daughter (who's 1 ) loves animals so we really must go soon.

      We love the safari park, great value as you get a free return ticket to go back again. Thanks for commenting!

    What fab shots, I love photographing robins, they're so pretty. The snake shot's great, with all the scales in focus.

      This little fella was clearly looking for his photo to be taken!

      And I was surprised how the snake photo turned out, seeing as I had to take it through glass and it was poorly lit.

      Thanks for stopping by!

    The Robin is such a little poser in this shot - lovely #MySundayPhoto

    I love the robin picture. They are so hard to snap because they stay still so rarely!

    I used to go to this safari park when I was a child and loved it. Great shots of captive and non captive animals! Would you like to join any of your safari posts up to #AnimalTales which opens over on my blog tomorrow?

    I love Robins they are such handsome birds. Did you know they are actually very territorial and aggressive
