The Rainy Day

August 25, 2013 by Lisa

The weather has been volatile today as you can see by the clouds menacing the sanctuary with the promise of rain.

What better way to spend a rainy, blustery Sunday than curled up in a nest with some of your favorite things? I certainly can’t argue with that!

Annie nesting in the greenhouse:

Missy in a nest on the catwalk in the playroom:

Jamie inside with her boots:

Jody peeking out from a nest on the catwalk:

Negra from underneath the blankets:

And while I personally would prefer the nap, I have it on good authority that although rain is threatening, that’s no reason to cancel a perfectly good walk around Young’s Hill!

    Nothing like being curled up with your favorite blankets whether resting or napping. I like the photo’s, especially the one of Negra. Sweet smile on her face. 🙂

    Love the photos!! Thanks for sharing! How do the Chimps react to thunder? My dog is terrified of them and I’ve often wondered how Great Apes react.
