Hello :)

I was looking for a list of the animals at San Antonio (US) zoo, so I could label my pictures, and I came accross this forum.

I love everything cute and fluffy (Red Panda's being on top of that list), and anything cat-like.

Me and my boyfriend, we share a love for animals, and will try to visit a zoo wherever and whenever we can.

So, I'm originally from Belgium, and I used to have an AP for Antwerp Zoo + Planckendael (combined AP).
I now live in England (boyfriend is British), and a couple of months ago we both got an AP for Hamerton Zoo.

I really enjoy taking pictures, I'm not a professional at all, but the camera's I use are a Nikon P100 (bridge) and a Nikon D5200 (dslr).

I may not have visited many different zoo's, due to not being able to drive myself, so relying on public transport, which isn't always as easy as it may sound, otherwise I would have definately went abroad much more.
I mainly really started to visit zoo's since 2016, and before that it was maybe a once in 4 years kind of thing.

But I recently managed to make a nice little list.
Belgium
- Winterslag Zoo 1x (way way back when, the zoo is gone now)
- Antwerp Zoo 19x
- Planckendael 15x
- Pairi Daiza 1x
- Bellewaerde 1x (especially for the leopard cubs)
- Olmense Zoo 1x

The Netherlands
- Gaia Zoo 2x
- De Oliemeulen Tilburg

France
- Zoo de Lille 2x

US
- San Antonio 2014
- San Fransisco 2016

UK
- London Zoo 1x
- Dudley Zoo 2x
- Twycross Zoo 1x
- Blackpool Zoo 1x
- Cotswold Zoo 1x
- Hamerton Zoo 8x (we only found out about this one 4 months ago, lol)
- Ribby Hall Wild Discovery 1x
- Birmingham Wildlife Conservation Park 1x
- West Midlands Safari Park 1x

Upcoming: We'll be on holiday in Kent next month, and have got 4 on the list to check out :D

Welcome. Looking forward to seeing your photos. The D5200 is really good for shots of flying birds.

Thanks! I'm not a massive bird person though, so I haven't really tried anything like that yet.
But, I've managed to get some great shots from the Blue Angels during fleet week in SF back in 2016, kind of the same? haha
