It was a pretty laid back day around the chimp house today. Everyone must still be resting from Jamieween and Lucky’s birthday! The weather was cold and mostly cloudy today, so it was a good day to just lounge around. In the afternoon there was a window of some sun and the chimpanzees in Jamie’s group took this opportunity to explore Young’s Hill. They were out there for awhile, but then it was back to resting again.
Missy watching the others on Young’s Hill.
Burrito between sprints around the hill.
Foxie with her doll.
Jody took her golden beets from lunch onto the hill.
I couldn’t decide which photo of Annie I liked the best, so I added them all!
This is how I found Willy B lounging this morning when I was opening up the chimp house.
Katelyn took these great photos of Honey B interacting with the foot box today.
Just as I was adding the title of this blog “Quiet Days” Willy B started rolling this scooter back and forth. I think it’s dinner time!
Arlene and Michael says
Beautiful pictures Sam. Thank you. Hope you all have a wonderful evening.
Alex says
Sounds like a nice day. You know, the older I get the more I like the no drama days
tom austin says
there are so many “tells” dealing with this bunch…..
Pat says
A fun selection of photos, but Burito waking up is a hoot! some animals just gain your love!
Judy J says
What a nice selection of photos. The ones of Annie are beautiful!
Kathleen says
Wonderful photos Sam, all of them. Annie’s soft, fuzzy bed head made me smile. Thanks for including all these images of her. Same goes for Honey B and her box inspection.
Hope dinner was a hit and I hope the chimps had a nice quiet evening.

Sam….there’s no such thing as a bad Annie photo!
Thanks!

I laughed several times at this blog:joy:
Loved all the pictures of Annie all in a row. Now that really helps me learn how to identify her. From the front, from the side, looking down etc. I just love her.
Willy B waking up- too funny. had a good chuckle with that one:smile:
Honey B so curious. that last picture of her just slayed me?
How is it that each and every photo of each and every chimp evokes so much love and devotion in my heart. I love them so much.

I’m wondering if it’s just me or…Question: are you all receiving email notifications of new comments? I’m not so I’m wondering if it’s just me or…?
I always check the box but…?
Debi says
Hi Paulette…I’ve also been wondering why I’m not getting the email notifications of the new comments being posted???
Debi says
Hi again Paulette…Since I’m having some memory issues, I just now realized that perhaps I’d forgotten when I re-signed up for receiving the daily blog posts & probably forgot to check the box to be notified again of the followup comments…I’ve now done that so hopefully I’ll begin receiving the notifications via my email very soon…Could you have also just forgotten to check that notification button again after signing up this last time…I hope I’ve helped you because I know how much I enjoy reading ALL the comments from day-to-day… : )
Paulette says
Each time you comment, there is a box to check underneath it requesting to be notified of future comments. I click that box every day. And for a while I was receiving notification of new comments but I am no longer. I’ll shoot off an email to Diana
Linda C says
I’ve checked it often, Paulette. perhaps once in the few years I’ve followed the blog have I received a notice.
Diana says
Our web support person, Dave, who lives in Australia, is looking into this. He’s going to try setting it up so the emails come through a different system. Two things to double check on your end – 1) your spam folder and 2) an email confirmation that you should receive that you need to click through on to confirm you want to receive notifications (it’s set up as a double opt in system right now). This is a new system as of a couple of months ago, and Paulette is right that you have to choose to receive notices of comments on EVERY post. That way you won’t receive notices on comments on posts that you haven’t opted in to, just the ones you choose. Paulette, let me know if a few days if it seems to be working again. Thanks!
