Sacha

I decided to make another visit to the zoo before winter returns. It's supposed to start raining tonight with rain changing to snow tomorrow night. Such a wonderful combination. At least they are not forcasting ice. This is "Sacha". He is an 11 year old Amur Tiger.
I love the tongue! Nice capture.

Wouldn't it be lovely if there was some deep, green healthy grass behind him to set off his colors. I'm longing for spring already.

Hey, there's a couple of patches of green. Does that count. He is so funny to watch. He was all set to take a nap, his eyes were closing when he heard the kids coming. He perked right up. First I could see him scenting the air then the tongue comes out. Everyone thinks it is so cute that he likes kids but I think he is really thinking "Lunch".

Yes, I'll always remember the leopards jumping across a stream in their enclosure to chase the kids as they ran by the glass. It was scary.
