Longleat Safari Park is an extraordinarily good day out provided you have reasonable weather and good company. We had both with Aunty Lorna for company and a beautiful day. And Giraffes.
Lucy was making reference to the guidebook to help her identify the animals
For some reason Lucy still confuses Giraffes and Zebras. This is quite surprising given the amount of times she has watched the documentary Madagascar.
Hang on - who is this cheeky monkey?
Turns out that is exactly what he is. A cheeky monkey. Fortunately one that wasn't attracted to the windscreen wipers on Daddy's car. Some other unfortunate soles weren't so lucky judging by the discarded wipers on the road.
Daddy warns the monkey hoards to keep off his wipers.
Daddy is rather less authoritarian with these fellas. They look like they know how to handle themselves.
Being a Dr Who fan he isn't going to mess with these chaps
We park up the car so Lucy can have a good look at the deer. But they seem so far away.
Until they ventured a bit closer! Hello deer.
Lucy finds the deer quite amusing
Fancy some grub?
The deer did fancy some grub. As luck would have it, Aunty Lorna is there to provide more supplies.
Nom nom nom.
Last time we were at Longleat the Lions must have been on their holidays. This year they were definitely there.
We even got to see 4 baby lion cubs like Simba and Nala as well as the grown up variety
I think we can call this animal safari a success
