Cougar Mountain Zoo

As part of our family New Year’s resolutions for 2015, we are going to go to “a place” at least every other weekend. A place that is not a restaurant or shopping! So far we went to the restoration hangar at Paine Field, we went on the Boeing tour, and this week to the Cougar Mountain Zoo in Issaquah. (We missed the first weekend in January because we had not yet come up with this idea yet.)

It was a great day, lovely and warm, and The Man took a lot of pictures. Here are the highlights.

Who’s a pretty boy then?

I’m a pretty boy!

The view when standing with the tiger area to our backs, out over Lake Sammamish.

These tigers were pretty lethargic (as you see) until the keepers appeared with a box of meat. Then they woke up and did “tricks” for us, in order to get the meat as reward.

Different tiger, different area. At least he was alert enough for a picture.
