Today was for the ladies. I found Negra, Jamie, Jody, Foxie, & Missy all grooming each other while we cleaned the playroom (Annie was off doing her own thing), it could not have be a better time than to sit in a line and groom each other for an hour or so. Grooming is a very important aspect in chimp behavior and these ladies made sure to get their fill today!

Negra and Jamie noticed my presence and stared at me while I snapped some photos:
Jamie later had Missy tell me to get lost:

Well, of course Burrito wasn’t to far away:

Nice to see Negra remains in her cozy blankets while Jamie grooms her. Only a Queen gets that type of treatment. Love those last two photos too.
