Brrrrrrrrrrrr… it is cold today in central Washington! It is 47 degrees (according to my phone’s weather app) as I type this. Despite the sudden cooler temperatures, the chimpanzees have been enjoying their day outside. Jamie’s group has been on/off their new and improved Young’s Hill all day and Cy’s group has spent lots of time in their two greenhouses.
This morning during cleaning, I heard chimpanzee laughter coming from one of the front rooms. It’s normal for Burrito to be playing in the morning but it is always a guess as to who his play buddy is! Today, it was Negra. In my personal opinion, Negra play sessions are the best! So enjoy today’s video featuring a nice play session between Burrito and Negra, with Foxie in the background for moral support!
Now let’s play a game!
Here are two photos… can you guess whose lips these belong to?! Comment your guesses below and I will reveal the answers on Sunday’s blog!
Mystery Lips #1:
Mystery Lips #2:
My guess for #2 is Honey B!
Still not sure about #1… Perhaps Cy? :thinking:
I don’t know how Burrito doesn’t get a headache with all that “headbang” of his. His head was bouncing up and down like he was at a concert. As to the weather, 57* is summer in Scotland. We feel the cold when it usually hits about 10* or less. But, as for all the videos, thank you for brightening my day with them all and the wonderful blogs. And last but never least, thank you for all you do for our amazing cousins and the residents. Stay safe and warm.
At first, all the head thumping made me think of the old tv show on MTV ‘The Headbangers Ball, minus the heavy metal or grunge. Burrito and Neggie look adorable and I will watch this one over and over. Thanks Jenna.
Fun, Jenna!
I say Cy and Honey B.
Love that everyone seems to notice Birrito’s toe-tapping…and how they know that Neggie likes to be hit on the head is beyond me… but I think we know now why Neggie is sans pélage….ease up on the hair-pulling, Bubba!
I always enjoy a good play session between Burrito and Neggie. What a couple of goofballs! I had to watch this video twice. Once to watch the players and once to observe Foxie bopping to the play and observeing you.
Now, for the lips. Sneaky good game, Jenna! I did some homework and studied my photos so I’m guessing #1 is Cy and #2 is Honey B. But this is a tricky one! Yikes.
Stay warm!
As rowdy as Burrito always is, I’m always amazed how gently he plays with Negra. Very sweet.
I’m always impressed with how they modulate that!
CY and Honey B!!! ??? FUN!!!
willie B and Honey B.
I love how all the chimps know thep need to play softly with Negra.
