Pic of the Day – Just chilling!

Pictured in today’s Irish Examiner are western lowland gorilla Kambiri and her mother Mayani chilling out in the sun yesterday. I must say I’m full of jealousy that I haven’t been able to take full advantage of the good weather and now I see that it isn’t looking so good for the weekend. Let’s hope that this isn’t the last of the good weather for the year.
