perfect for younger children and grandparents who don’t want to walk a hundred miles. Merlin was in fine form this day. We can’t resist showing off his pictures, taken by our daughter Ashley Kyser of Irresistible Photography. Sure beats the pictures we take.
Did you notice the size of Merlin’s paw? I was glad he was behind bars, especially when I found out that cougars can jump about 18 feet, vertically! I’ll bet this pretty bird is glad he is behind bars too! There are many of the parrots that are sitting on their perches without any bars and you can go right up to them. Some are quite chatty. We will do a post about them soon, with photos by Ashley of course. Zoo website is www.cougarmountainzoo.org.
