An Unlikely Pair

It's been a while since you've seen either of these two on the blog. I don't have many pictures of the two together, either. This is a rare occasion, I suppose.





And to finish this off, here's a bee I found in the grass.

Woodland Park Zoo

"Lions, Tigers, and Bears. Oh my!" The Woodland Park Zoo in Seattle had so much more to photograph than our little Willow Park Zoo. Heaven forbid a zoo contain anything more than birds and ducks.

Of course, all the cats were sleeping... Like our Jaguar friend.


Gorillas doing Gorilla things

Sloth Bear's pulling funny faces

Tigers napping

Are Zebras white with black stripes? Or Black with white stripes? The world may never know.


The very very tall Giraffe

Aww, hippo love

Too cute

Monkey love?

They groom each other. That's cute, right?

"In the jungle, the mighty jungle, the lion sleeps tonight..."



Lazy Orangutan

I'm not sure what this is...

The Snow Leopards. The two cubs on the left, and the mother on the right. The cub on the far left gave me a chuckle.

The mighty Grizzly Bear

Mountain Goat

Eagles

This Zoo is HUGE. There is so much to see here.

The Butterfly Room

The Pacific Science Center in Seattle has a room in which butterflies fly around and you get walk through. They don't fly away when you get close, so it's perfect for the photographer wanting to take pictures of butterflies. Like me. I wasn't lucky enough to have them land on me, though.






Feeding areas of the Butterflies


Nom nom nom nom.

That trip I mentioned...

You remember how I said I was going on a trip to Washington?
Done.
Here are some pictures from that:









These next 3 pictures are from atop the space needle



Look forward to specific posts about things such as the Woodland Park Zoo, and the Butterfly Room at the Pacific Science Center. I took a truckload of pictures. I'd love to share them all with you, but that would take quite a while.
