wild arena secret nature of britain - Description:
a full and exclusive day at a collection featuring the wildlife of the British Isles. At this unique location you will even be given the opportunity to enter some enclosures and photograph Red Foxes, Scottish Wildcats and Otters! Close-up encounters with Birds of Prey and smaller animals will follow. With deer in a delightful woodland setting, Red Squirrels, Water Voles, snakes and hopefully Badgers in the evening you will be treated to a full day of wonderful encounters with many of our native species.
As well as providing unparalleled photographic opportunities, the day is also an experience for anyone who has seen our resident species from afar and would enjoy the experience of closer views.
The activity packed day will start at 10am when your guides and the keeping staff will provide you with wonderful photographic opportunities around - and inside! - the enclosures. A buffet lunch will be provided after which a realistic close-up set with full studio lighting will allow you to capture natural images of some of the smaller residents. During the afternoon birds of prey - including Buzzards and Barn Owls - will be available to photograph in natural settings, and there will be time to return to your favourite species.
the flexible and comprehensive itinerary (including the use of a fully equipped indoor studio) ensures this workshop can run right through the winter months allowing great pictures whatever the weather!
This full day includes, entrance fee, lunch, refreshments, use of studio lighting and tuition.

Strengths:
amazing access , very helpful keepers and tutors
Weaknesses:
I have done this course 3 times now and have never ceased to be amazed at the quality of the access you get - this includes keeper accompanied access to the wildcat and otter enclosures and unaccompanied and unrestricted access to the red squirell and fox enclosures plus many other species including deer , polecat , owls, etc then can be photographed through large mesh wire
You can get so close that it is perfectly possible to get top flight images with a compact or ultra close ups with an SLR
again a fantastic opportunity for the wildlife enthusiast as well as the photographer and another coyrse I would highly recomend
