Mother and Child

We took our granddaughter to the Erie Zoo. One of the treats was seeing this new born orangutan that was born in February. They named him, Otis. There was a contest to come up with a name and 6,000 entries were made. The list was narrowed to 6 or 8 and the zoo trainers chose Otis from that list. They thought Otis suited his character.
What a wonderful shot of the two of them. Hope your granddaughter enjoyed it as much as I did.

@ludwigsdiana @beryl @rjb71 - I have a few more of the two of them. Two or three in a similar pose and another completely different. This one I liked a little better as it depicts to me what mothers endure when raising a very young child. There are those times in the day when a mother is is worn out and needs a rest but can't because her little one is wide awake!
