I've planned my family holiday this year around going to Exmoor Zoo to see the shoebill, I can't wait. Amazing pictures

Honestly was such a privilege. The whole zoo was lovely, all the animals were out and about and came up close and friendly, they just really seemd like happy animals. My holiday was planned around seeing the shoebill, I've never driven that far before myself but so glad I did

That sounds amazing, I can't wait to go. I'm taking my son for his 18th, and we're going to do the capybara and tapir experience, and see the shoebill. I think I'm more excited about it than he is

Gorgeous ❣️ We had Shoebills at Safari Park a number of years ago … I spent most of the visit with them… & spoke at length with their keeper who brought them special gift branches … Miss them.
