After the chimps received access to Young’s Hill this morning, almost everyone went out! Missy and Annie were playing a fun game of what looked like, follow the leader. I am sure we are all familiar with this grade school game, where one friend leads and the other friend has to copy what they do. Well, I observed the chimp version of that today! As we all know Missy is very good at running, climbing, balancing, and just basically being a chimp. So in this game, naturally Missy was the leader and Annie followed, however as you will see in the photos Annie will do her own variations and what she finds most comfortable for her.
Missy starts of by climbing up Negra’s Cabin:
Then Annie follows:
Missy then walks the tight rope:
Annie follows, but decides to do it her way:
And gracefully sticks the landing:
While this game was happening, Jamie went for a perimeter walk accompanied by Foxie and Jody:
Burrito kept a close eye on everyone from his view up top:
And Negra, well she was too comfortable to get up (I mean really comfy):
I also have some extra photos I thought should not be left out!
Jamie put a sock on this morning and was running around and playing chase (this is the only photo she would let me take of her and the sock):
Jody:
Burrito following Jody on the Hill:
Loved all the photos. The lovely Queen Negra looks so sweet tucked up in her blanket!
Can’t stop looking at the photos of Missy of Annie doing Follow The Leader, especially while on the tight rope! Too sweet seeing Annie doing things her way. Fabulous photos, all of them! Young’s Hill looks so green and lush these days. Love the way the blackness of the chimps pops out of the lime green background.
Friendship. The best. What a great way to start my day. Your blogs and pictures are always wonderful. I could spend my day watching them and learning as much as I can about them. Thank you all for loving them so and sharing them with all of us.
