Negra and Her Corn

September 12, 2023 by Grace

It has been a beautiful day here in Cle Elum and we took full advantage of it with lunch forages for both groups! Forages are a great time to get creative and use up any last bits of produce that we have leftover in the fridge from previous meals. Today, for example, Negra’s group had a lunch forage that consisted of leftover mini sweet peppers, oranges, two leftover grapefruits, baby iceberg lettuce, leftover corn, and primate chow.

Despite the variety in today’s lunch forage, Negra focused on one of her favorites: corn. When she came back into the greenhouse I thought she had found one full and one half ear of corn, but when I looked closer I noticed that she had two half ears and one full ear of corn! Sneaky! (Side note: does no one else find it odd that we refer to corn as ears?)

I realized that I have quite a bit of footage on my phone of Negra enjoying corn- and thus the idea for today’s blog! I hope you enjoy the three minute compilation of Negra enjoying one of her favorite foods. 🙂
