Lions and Tigers and Bears!

As my loyal blog minions are probably well aware, I am never one to miss an opportunity to take pictures of animals. A squirrel on a sidewalk can keep me busy for an hour. Some people are distracted by shiny objects, I'm distracted by fluffy creatures.

Naturally, when we went to the Woodland Park Zoo the other day, my ADD was out in full force, as was my camera. So, loyal blog minions, I shall now inflict photos of various creatures upon you.

Lions...
And tigers...
And bears...
Otters are always good for some cuteness:
Especially when they're playing...

SHAZAM!
I'm a sucker for raptors, so I had to get a shot of the Peregrine...
And the owl that was looking at me with disdain...at least, I assume it's disdain. Birds don't have quite the range of facial expressions as humans. They're more like Keanu Reeves and Steven Seagall in that sense...
This one is just for Scarlett:
I was never aware that the flamingo is a fowl-tempered (SEE WHAT I DID THERE?) beast, but these two were fighting the whole time:
This giraffe looked exceptionally pouty and pissy. Probably because the other giraffes were being fed and he wasn't...
"Oh. HAI."
Penguin...chillin'...
I totally missed a shot of this viper yawning (or doing something that resembled yawning...I'm not sure if snakes DO yawn...but its mouth was open so wide I thought it's head was going to collapse), so you'll just have to settle for this pic:
WHASSUP?
FROGGY!!!!!!
They even had the new Gerard Butler exhibit open...
Er...*cough*...I mean...

Ahem. Anyway, there's our trip to the Woodland Park Zoo. All hail pictures of fluffy creatures (and hot Scotsmen)!
