I presume you're aware of the lights being on for a short while after opening time in the Nocturnal House -not everything might be out but you'll get a good view (and photo opportunity) of anything that is.
Thanks! I might finally get a photo of a kowari as it is always too dark to do so!
Made it up to Longleat today again as the other half wanted to see the new arrivals that have turned up since we last went to the festival of lights in November. Was good to see the new koala's, otters, crocodiles ect ect. Did any one happen to know what eventually happened to all the rays and that given the crocodiles seem to have acquired there enclosure. I knew what happened to the penguins but hadn't heard anything about those.
Few different signs up today about various other enclosures closed for maintenance and new exhibits being on the way to.

Is the new tree porcupine on display yet?
It was yes although we didn't see very much of it as it was tucked away inside its house asleep when we went by this morning.
Good to know that it is already on show. What area is it in? Animal Adventure, Jungle Kingdom or somewhere else?
In the middle of the animal adventures section today to the right of the where the Armadillo was.
1.1 Amur Tiger were born earlier in the Summer. These are the first Tiger cubs at the Park for almost 20 years

Apologises if it's already been mentioned but does anybody know why the white rhino no longer seem to be out in the big game park? The last couple of times I've been and by the looks of recent photos they always seem to be in there yard.
The last I heard (September 2018) was that they were in TB restriction, not the park itself but fields in the vicinity so I think they took them out of the drive through just as a precaution.
Is everyone ready to watch Animal Park Summer Special tomorrow morning ?
