Baby Bonobo Monkey

[TTQ B4U]

Yesterday was a nice day at the zoo. Not too, too hot. Busiest I've ever seen it though. Parking was full and they were directing folks to the grass.

My wife hates it, but I ended up going straight and played dumb vs going to the grass and found a spot in the first row behind the handicap spots up front :fuckyeah:

 

Baby Bonobo was out in the glass pens when we first got there which was cool, but ugly and according to the speaker they were going to bring mother and little one inside soon. I told my wife I'd catch up and waited so as they brought her in, I was the first one in front of the inside display.

 

I love the expression on moms face. Like she's really enjoying her new found bundle of joy.

 

I had to step way, way back and shoot this one at full zoom to eliminate the glare from the glass.

Not sure why, but I like this pic. Was a hot day and man this area of misters cooling everything down felt great. Wasn't really shooting at anything particular but I have caught a nice image of my son here once before.

Our son was born on Wed the 18th... imo this just re-enforces the skin to skin theories.
