Yesterday was such a lovely party for everyone. As Ellen said, there was so much footage, we had to split it into more than one video. Her video yesterday captured Negra at the celebration, and today’s captures Terry plus some coconut antics.
We didn’t leave Jody out of the celebration. I put some fresh flowers in the little vase she holds – some lavender and columbine from the side garden by the house.
And here’s Negra with a birthday rose:
And one more shot of her in the afternoon:
When I walked back to the house after the chimps’ parties, I came across this deer sneaking a treat from the cherry tree. Everyone should have a treat on such a special day!
Thank you for displaying these beautiful photographs of Neggie, the Jody statue, and the deer.
As for Terry…
“Teeny, Tiny, Terry,
has been three dozen years,
skilled at grooming flowers,
and sounding forth Bronx Cheers.”
Happy Birthday to Terry! Looks like Terry and crew enjoyed the birthday celebration. Pancake shots! Terry certainly enjoyed tossing back a shot or two followed up by sweet potato with coconut cream. Yummy. Rayne’s food peering would have cracked me quickly but Terry acted as if she wasn’t even there. So funny. I loved the breakdown of techniques on coconut demolishing! Missy lost a lot of the sweet liquid, I was surprised by that.
What a festive day. For everyone! Even Jody celebrated with her hand picked bouquet. You think of everything. Thanks for sharing all of this with us, videos and photos. Feel free to share more tomorrow. 😉
I see George and Terry are getting on better now!
Gordito stomping on his coco will never not be funny!
Thanks for making 2 videos for us! I know your good friend Neggie enjoyed her day, and everything that you have done and do for her, Diana.
Happy birthday, Terry! I love your beautiful freckled face (which has the ability to remain impassive in the presence lf Rayne’s impressive food peering)! I love watching them with the coconuts, too. Did Neggie get one?
Negra did get some pieces of coconut served to her and later I saw her with more that one of her chimpanzee friends must have allowed her to take. You can’t say no to the Queen!
