A lot of it is about timing and luck and the motivation of good coffee – plus I’ve learnt to keep the curtains closed and that way I look only at the screen and think about the story – an old favourite movie often helps – you work it out –

The animals this day are in close-up – a different environment now to that of yesterday – they are kept this time in a small wildlife park; some are tethered, others roam freely in the mud and the pens – did you know a Tapir has been the same for 35 million years, evolution has found the ideal shape and mass for its natural habitat and they are cool with that – still the Peregrine Falcon sticks in my mind the most despite all the Lemurs (bonkers) and the Otters (beautiful) –

If Jesus walked the earth again they’d stick him in one of these and people would pay good money to come watch him circle his pen -
