When the chimpanzees gained access to their 2 acre outdoor enclosure this morning, you could really feel their joy and excitement. The sun and light breeze together were a complimentary pair!
Annie chased Missy bipedally (trying to avoid touching the wet grass as much as possible).
She finally climbed onto a log to escape the morning dew.
Missy performed a few aerial stunts.
And then settled down to snack on the fresh green grass.
Foxie explored with two of her dolls.
And Jody and Burrito decided to relax and take in the view.
Jamie recruited J.B. into going for a perimeter walk.
The walk eventually evolved into a perimeter jog.
I must admit, I searched a while for a quote or poem about the loveliness of Spring to accompany this post, but I couldn’t quite find the right one. I suppose springtime at the sanctuary is best described in photos.
