As a Christmas present for ourselves, Nick and I got annual memberships to Woodland Park Zoo. It’s only 5 miles from home and, if nothing else, it’s a good excuse to go for a walk and practice photography.

Nick and I went to the zoo over the weekend. It was kind of a gloomy day (not like the 68 degrees we had yesterday!), which made photographing the animals a little tricky, but it almost felt like we had the zoo to ourselves. The male lion was showing off and he was really fun to photograph. I really liked the otters, too; it was fun to watch them play together. Go to our Flickr photo album to see more photos from our trip to the zoo.

By the way, our zoo membership makes it so guests can get in for half-price admission, so let us know if you’d like to take a trip to the zoo with us. 🙂
