Most of the chimpanzees think being outside on Young’s Hill is worth tolerating some less than ideal weather conditions. Jamie even went for a perimeter walk in the rain recently.

But Negra has her standards. If the weather is less than perfect in any way, she wants no part of the outdoors. Luckily, today is beautiful and Negra was happy to participate in the lunch forage on Young’s Hill.

    Negra has the best squat of all.. I love that big round belly that bulges out between her legs!

    Between Missy and her adventures on The Hill yesterday and now seeing Negra enjoying the sun and fun on The Hill, I can’t can’t think of anything that could top these 2 posts. Look at Negra’s last photo — now that’s a look of well deserved contentment. I love these girls.

    Negra=the queen of Zen.

    Negra reminds be of a happy, contented Buddha in these photos…she is definitely the zen Queen…

    Great shots of Negra enjoying the good life. I bet the sun felt good. (We’re waiting for spring weather here on the east coast…I’m a little envious of Negra getting to spend her lunch hour outside!) 🙂
