Oldest Female Gorilla

She was my favorite. I have so much to tell you about her. I will not try to put it all in one post.

I guess one of my favorite encounters was when I could not find her anywhere in the display. I checked all of her favorite spots through all of the viewing windows and outdoor viewing spots.

Finally, I just decided to go sit down by her favorite resting spot and just wait.

There was a breeze blowing and all the bushes were movning a little.

After awhile the red hibiscus bush just off to the side was moving, but not with the rythem of the wind. I called her name. Out popped her face. She was surrounded by red hibiscus. I wish I had brought my camera that day.

She loved the bag I always brought with me. She, of course, never got it. But, when I would come up to the window where she was she would just stare at it. If I did not show her what was in it quick enough, she would tap the glass. And, I had to take everything out. She was not interested with seeing just part of it.

I will tell you more later.
