Face washing

March 10, 2013 by Jackie

Annie has so many endearing habits and pastimes. Some of my favorites are seen in the video of this blog, including her “bird noises” and the way she lays on her back and claps her feet. I also love to see her in her “yoga poses”. As if all of that wasn’t adorable enough, she has recently found yet another adorable habit. Over the last few months (especially when we were regularly giving the chimps bottled water due to the Taylor Bridge Fire) I’ve seen her occasionally fill her mouth with water, lay on her back and spit the water into the air or in her hand so she can rub it all over her face. Today I caught her lounging in the greenhouse “cleaning her face” after running around on Young’s Hill with Missy. Seems like the perfect refresher.
