How to Forage

August 3, 2019 by Diana

By Burrito Chimpanzee

Gather as much of the most prized item as you can, filling your hands so that you must stand bipedally.

Process the food as you go.

Don’t worry about what other people are doing.

Just go for it.

Get the most out of everything you’ve gathered.

Take a rest, but make sure to guard any leftovers.

    I think Burrito has just written an award winning children’s book!

    Thank ya for today’s posting Diana/Ventriloquist of Burrito. Every single day is not complete until I hear the daily synopsis, and so well shared.

    Diana, how delightful photos of Burrito, each look tells a tale and Thank you Burrito for allowing us to be a part of your daily adventures no matter at which end of emotions.

    Watching you graze you are actually eliciting my own hankering for a salad, perhaps strawberry pecan, happy to share.

    I know each night I drift off to slumberland with such excitement of the arrival of a few more blessed family chimps.

    Thank you to Chimpanzee Sanctuary Northwest for providing a safe, healing, loving, adventurous adventure. I know the chimps must have a lot of gratitude for all the love and care. I know I do!

      Thank you, Holly! Salad with strawberries and pecans sounds fantastic to me!

    I think he took lessons from Farmer Jo! (Except for that “eat as you go” part)
    Diana, since corn is one of Neggie’s favorites, this makes me wonder…does Neggie ever get pilo over food, like Mr. B?

      I don’t recall seeing Negra pilo over food. She does get quite impatient with our service sometimes, but even then, it’s not to the point of being pilo. It doesn’t take much to trigger Burrito’s “goosebumps.” 🙂

    Oh stop it. This is too funny! Where I live, the August corn is the sweetest so I get Burritos excitement. Love that image with the rope of corn silk going from his mouth to his hand. Let’s face it, Burrito is a foraging genius. That last photo with your caption just killed me! Thanks Diana, you totally brought Burrito to life. xoxo

      He did give me quite a lot of material to work with, to give credit to Burrito.

    Foxie’s birthday is coming right up! Are all the dolls on deck and ready for duty!?

    • Diana says

      August 5, 2019 at 9:52 pm

      Yes! Her birthday is in just a few days. There’s a tote right by the new entrance that seems to have new dolls added to it each day!

    Regarding the photograph at the very top: If I didn’t know any better, I would’ve thought that was my uncle or one of my cousins at a family reunion picnic in Parke County, Indiana. The difference? Burrito writes in a more streamlined prose style…

      haha!

    Absolutely fantastic post and photos!!! Burrito, you’re so darned adorable… I’m off to get some corn and maybe walk through the store with a piece in my mouth and silk hanging down in front of me… I honor your methods… and REALLY appreciate the posts!

    • Diana says

      Judy – I hope someone took photos of your foraging inspired by Burrito! 😉
