called Charlie&#8217;s Hide, the Den, and Willow Hide.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  <img   alt=\"Danny and Ella in Willow Hide\" style=\"width: 100%;\"\/>Danny and Ella in Willow Hide (Image: Danny Virr) The free photography sessions will take place in Willow Hide.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  Yorkshire Photography Hides&#8217; website states: &#8220;Our hides are all set on private land in the heart of West Yorkshire and offer you the perfect opportunity to get closer to nature than you may have thought possible and capture moments many never see.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  &#8220;With a huge amount of biodiversity we often have the possibility to introduce seasonal hides on a pop-up basis to observe certain species.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  The website describes Willow Hide &#8211; which is situated on the fringe of an ancient oak woodland &#8211; as a &#8220;songbird paradise&#8221;.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  Danny added: &#8220;During the school holidays,\u00a0we know it can be hard work filling the days &#8211; and costly.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  &#8220;That&#8217;s another reason why we&#8217;re opening up Willow Hide throughout the whole of August to be used by junior photographers at absolutely no\u00a0cost.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  Each session\u00a0can hold up to two junior photographers and one accompanying adult.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  Accompanying adults are also permitted to bring their own camera should they wish to have a go.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  For more information and to book a session, visit\u00a0www.yorkshirephotographyhides.co.uk or search for Yorkshire Photography Hides on Facebook.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The sessions &#8211;
