After lunch today everyone spent time soaking up the warmth of the greenhouse. Stretched out in the heat and dozing, bellies were full and eyes were heavy. Beautiful Missy wasn’t asleep, but she gave me the rare gift of a quiet moment with her. And the even rarer gift of a quiet moment in front of the camera.
But not everyone has time for siestas. While the rest of us were enjoying a leisurely moment, Ellie was hard at work. She and Jim, from A-1 Petroleum and Propane, were busy with our propane delivery.
And just between us, I am pretty sure Ellie has a crush. Ellie is a pretty friendly lady, but she was completely smitten with her new pal, Jim. I think she might have gone home with him if she could have gotten in his truck.

Lovely photos of Missy! And I can’t get over Ellie. Not sure if she has a crush on Jim or the propane tank! ; ) I wish she could find an elk family who would take her in.

Beautiful pictures of Missy! She has such soulful eyes. Thank you for sharing.
I love Ellie. How wonderful of her to come spend time with the Chimps and walk with them. I do hope that she has a family that she spends her nights with.
