Camera Critters ~ 34


Orangutans. They were so cute! The female is under the sack. She would occasionally sneak her arm out to swat the male who was trying to get comfortable next to her. Up above them, their baby was playing around, swinging on the fence. We stood and watched for a while, and it was so cool how the interact with each other.

To participate, to here.

Love the photo of the baby, swinging around...

Mum is probably flashing back to all she went though when she birthed him ... which is why she's swatting Dad !! :-)
