On 20 July 2019 I was given a lift to the York Birds of Prey Centre<\/a> by a fellow member of Shipley Camera Club. Andrew, the founder of the club who was with us, had organised the trip for 10 of us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I felt obliged to go on the trip because I was promoting wildlife photography to the camera club and several skills needed in the wild could be practiced. However I don’t think I will go to such places again and now feel that I would have made more of a case for wildlife photography by not going.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After a cup of coffee we had a wander around with our cameras. Quite a few of the birds were held on perches in front of their enclosures so we had opportunities to take some nice portraits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
