It’s been a pretty quiet day in the chimp house today. We are having some incredibly beautiful autumn days and everyone seems to be enjoying them in their own way. Jamie has, of course, been busy walking Young’s Hill with all her available caregivers and almost everyone else has joined her for a lap or two, or to collect some bamboo for munching and nesting. But for the most part, there is a lot of resting, relaxing, and napping going on.
Earlier this afternoon I found beautiful Annie, dozing contentedly on her own from the top platform of the greenhouse as she gazed out at Young’s Hill (in between blowing an occasional raspberry at me):
Oh – lovely to see her so content … Warms my heart.
The first photo of Annie is so lovely. Ahhhh, to be sung and cozy in your nest AND look over Young’s Hill — sanctuary indeed! I always giggle at her fuzzy-soft-hairdo. Wish I could softly stroke her head.
