Thanks so much, Dylan, for always sponsoring a day of sanctuary for the chimpanzees in celebration of the wonder and beauty of our changing seasons! From Dylan:
“Happy Summer Solstice!”
And to you, Dylan, from all of us here!
Summertime forages are something we try to offer the chimpanzees as often as we can this time of year. It gives them the opportunity to engage in natural foraging behaviors, enjoy some exercise and exploring in their outdoor habitats, and the excitement of finding and enjoying favorite foods (like watermelon bowls!) without having to wait on the humans to serve them, while enjoying a little space from one another as well. We can’t wait to see what this one holds. And we’re so happy that George gets to take in everything his new life will bring his way during this beautiful time of year. (We’ve learned that he does love watermelon!). 🙂
Enjoy these moments of summers past:

Happy summer solstice, Dylan! I hope that you, too, get to enjoy the season’s bounty!
I’m enjoying a breeze coming off the water so hard that the weighted shades in the kitchen window are blowing around, the sound of the wind in the trees next door, and a sunny blue sky, 70s!
Thank you, Dylan. What better way to celebrate summer than a delicious watermelon bowl for the chimps.
Thank you Dylan, for supporting CSNW! What a yummy and wonderful day you treated the tenants to. The pictures definitely show some very happy Chimpanzees!! Those watermelon bowls look so good!
Thank you for celebrating the change of seasons and the longest day of the year and for doing this in honor of the sanctuary.
Love all the photos, Katelyn!
Thank you, for supporting the sanctuary,Dylan and on such a day as 21st June and the changing season. I wish you all a very special day; over your part of the World the Summer Solstice over here in Australia today is our Winter Solstice! ?

I love the picture of the three gals and their watermelon. Thank you Dylan for supporting the sanctuary.
