Now you can hear all of the food squeaks, see the anticipation, and relive Thanksgiving at the sanctuary. Hope everyone is having a great holiday weekend, or regular weekend, depending on where you live.
Food
Jody and her sunflower
Diana got some close-up footage the other day of Jody eating a sunflower from our garden. Notice how quickly Jody is able to shell the seeds with her prehensile lips.
Lunch in the sun
Diana and I took some photos this afternoon while the chimps enjoyed a lunch forage outside. It was great to see Burrito enjoying the sunshine.

Negra stuffed as many onions in her mouth as she could and headed back to the play room.

Jamie went after the brussels sprouts, but apperantly not before contemplating them first.

She also spent some time dipping her onions in buckets of water, and then pouring the water from one container into another. This is typical Jamie. She has such an active mind, and she will often make projects for herself to keep busy.


Snow Grunts
The chimps never seem to tire of eating snow. Sitting here in the kitchen, I hear food grunts and squeaks every 5 minutes or so as someone returns from the outdoor area with a giant snowball.
Burrito




Burrito and a Superhero
I’ve heard from some readers that Burrito doesn’t get as much attention on our blog as the other chimps, so here are a few recent photos of the big man hanging out and enjoying his chow.



In this photo, Jamie was just moving her bed from the hammock to the platform, but she looked like she was about to rescue someone.

Foxie photos
Only Foxie can make eating a carrot look cool.
