Leopards and Lynx

[eeyore]

it appears that my snow leos arent already in the image archive - i cant be bothered to get into resizing and uploading now but i'll do it at some point.

if you like collections like this you really ought to take a look at the british wildlife centre at lingfield in surrey - well worth a visit

this was taken there a couple of years back (scottish wildcat -felis silvestris)

to both the birders at Havergate and those at Mnsmere that they each
had avocets so close to each other!

The finding of the avocets at Minsmere, flooded as tank protection in
the war, was the stimulus for the Ogilvies in Scots hall to ask the RSPB
to manage the site ............ and the rest is history as they say.

Thanks for the info regarding the british wildlife centre, I'll have a look at that.

Nice pic of the wildcat, I haven't seen one of those since I was a teenager.
