Lowland Gorilla named Hercules at the Dallas Zoo.
When I saw Hercules with the straw on his back I knew I
had to photograph that. Watched Hercules take the straw
and unload it and then he layed down on the bed of straw.
Unfortunately where he was was too far even for my
300mm zoom lens I was using. These photographs are
taken thru glass using Landscape mode & no flash
to avoid glass glare.

Closeups:
Wonder if I should use a black Sharpie & silver marker
to highlight the Cricut cuts. What do you think?
