I took this shot at the Riverbanks Zoo in Columbia, SC. The female Western Lowland Gorilla had some nesting/bedding(?) material on her back that looked like an Easter basket. The Silverback actually looks like he is amused!

Mac. Thank you for giving me a taste of my old home. I lived for 26 years in Columbia before moving to Houston. I love Riverbanks Zoo. It is the best zoo I have ever visited. For being such a small city, Columbia has found a way to make one of the best zoos in the country, beating out (IMO) much larger cities zoos like Houston and Atlanta. Their gorilla exhibit they built a few years back is quite good as well. Thanks for the share. Cheers.

My pleasure! Here is a link to my Riverbanks Zoo Flickr album, if you want to see some more pictures. I am always amazed at how nice they keep this zoo. Always making renovations. Something new to see each time we make the 2 hour drive down from Charlotte.
