The Gang Grooms the Day Away

April 20, 2021 by Chad de Bree

Today has just been one of those busy days. Every time I would go to get some photos of the chimpanzees, they were in spots that are extremely difficult to get photos from. And the times the Seven were exploring Young’s Hill, I was in the middle of cleaning and didn’t make in time to take many photos. I was starting to get worried that today’s blog would just be a hodge podge of random photos I was able to get. In one final attempt, I just went to check to see what was happening in the Greenhouse. And there was the grooming party of all grooming parties.

Annie grooming Jody grooming Burrito:

Jamie and Foxie grooming:

Burrito left Jody and Annie to groom with Missy:

Jamie left Foxie to groom my boots:

And Negra passed on grooming to monitor the progress of dinner being made. Priorities.

And if you’re wondering about the hodge podge of random photos, here they are as a bonus.

Annie trying to spy on her neighbors from Young’s Hill.
Foxie returning from her own little adventure on Young’s Hill.
Foxie flexing to show how tough and fierce she is! (Ok! maybe she was just in mid-stride when this photo was snapped, but it doesn’t make it any less true!)
Honey B enjoying one of the artificial tree branch platforms!
Then climbing down to play chase with caregivers.
Willy B also enjoys this platform as well!
Honey B watching me clean one of the new playrooms in true Honey B fashion.

    Oh, Foxie’s little pink tongue of concentration!
    Thanks for the photos, Chad!
    Funny how Neggie seems to be able to pass on breakfast in the morning, but then spends the day watching the kitchen. Maybe it’s an IF kind of thing

    Hodge podge of random photos! Yippee, I love it. Same goes for the grooming parties. And it’s fun seeing Honey B and Willy B relaxing on the new tree-branch-platforms. Thanks for all the phots Chad!
