Please enjoy these photos of Queen Negra obtaining Brussels Sprouts on a gorgeous fall day.

She got in some calisthenics during the forage.

Bonus: Jamie and red peppers in the tall grass

    Wonderful photos! What is that little creature on the left in the second photo?

      Not sure what that is. Normally, you can download the photos and zoom in further, but not when Diana posts them

        I do think what you are seeing is the end of a log. thats news to me that the photos in my posts are any different than others!

          They are, Diana! I noticed it first when you posted pics of Rayne smiling down on you.
          Maybe you have a different phone? :person_shrugging:?

    Negra looks as agile as Missy (sort of!). Way to go Nagra! The Queen and the Boss had a sunny, successful foarage! ?

    Oh, how I LOVE Negra! my heart bursts for that beautiful girl.

  5. Linda C says

    Wow, she had to work for those! I’m glad to see she still has it in her!
    But Diana, when she’s out on the wire like that, do you ever worry, considering her age?

    • Diana says

      October 16, 2021 at 9:09 pm

      I dont worry. Negra’s not one to push herself to do things she is not capable of, and 48 is not so old. 🙂

      • Linda C says

        October 16, 2021 at 9:25 pm

        That’s what I keep telling myself! 😉
        I want to see her hit 50, and get cake!

    most of your patrons are very happy to read that you say 48 is not so old……great wording

    Lovely story these photos tell…
    And I think that our Queen Negra knows exacty where her limits and boundries are…..She is a wise woman.

    It warms my heart to see pictures and posts about these precious creatures being lovingly cared for. Thanks to all of the staff there at Chimpanzee Sanctuary Northwest.
