Detail. This is Olympia. Here is what the zoo said: “She is 26 years old and was born in Zoo Atlanta. She moved to North Carolina Zoo in 2011 and then came here to WPZ earlier this year.” It is pretty cold right now here in Seattle and I worry about the animals. But I adjust known @woodlandparkzoo has thought of everything. The care for the animals is exemplary. #woodlandparkzoo #gorilla #olympia #oilpainting #artistsoninstagram #zoo #animals #contemporaryrealism #painter #art (at Woodland Park Zoo) https://www.instagram.com/p/ClKvNWlrKvL/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
Silver humpback gorilla just waking from her beauty sleep. The photos were shot through glass so there’s a reflection & marks on the glass. It was a lazy summer day for her. 👈🏼🦍🦍👈🏼 please scroll left #thechroniclesoffarnia #thingssoamazeme #magic #wonder #woodlandparkzoo #gorilla #silverback #ape #perfectday #zoo #sofun #nature #huge #powerful #lazy #summerdays #wakingup https://www.instagram.com/p/CfgrBfPLk1o/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
[video description: video is a tiktok by user @woodlandparkzoo showing a adult female gorilla laying on her back on hay with a very small newborn gorilla laying on her chest. She looks up and around a few times, but keeps a hand on her infants back and lightly rubs his back with her thumb, pats his back and generally is physically affectionate with her baby. The baby looks around, and playing with gripping mom's chest hair. White text in a black bubble at the start of the video reads "Uzumma and her baby" after a few seconds, "just chilling" then towards the end of the video "[seven purple heart emojis]". While the video plays, an upbeat tune featuring piano and vocals plays for the first 15 seconds, but ends abruptly and the video is silent after. End video description]
Great to meet Coba the Spectacled Owl and Bolivar the Red-footed Tortoise at @woodlandparkzoo “Whiskey and Wild Bites” event tonight, live on @kiro7seattle. Both Coba and Bolivar were getting their wild bites in too! 😁 (at Woodland Park Zoo) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cg6GrB2OKpt/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
What’s a face lick between family members?

Aren’t these two young red pandas just the cutest? Read about their future in the text following the credits... •. •. •. •. •. •. •. •. •. •. •. •. •. •. •. •. •. •. •. •. •. •. This is a #Repost from @woodlandparkzoo ・・・ Sisters. Twins. Floofs! Zeya and Ila are showing keepers signs that they are ready to become independent red pandas. The last day to see these two before they head to @thetorontozoo and @newzoogb is April 14. The red pandas have completely stolen our hearts, and although we’ll be sad to see them go, we are very happy that as part of the Species Survival Plan, they will be able to begin their new adventures where they can eventually have their own families. Seeing the cubs grow up together is a joy, but we have to remember that not all animals share our human desire to stick close to family as they mature. Red pandas are primarily solitary, except during mating. We wish Ila and Zeya all the best! Stop by before they head out to say adios or leave them a comment here and we’ll pass it up the tree. 📷 by @carsontheredpanda (as always when it comes to all things red panda 💜) #fridayvibes #fridayfloof #woodlandparkzoo #tgif #redpanda #twins #cubs #redpandas #fridaymotivation #endangeredspecies #savingspecies @zoos_aquariums https://www.instagram.com/p/BwbCjvuBNoj/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=aa6s3q2qwawb

Detail. I’m leaving this part as simple, flat-ish shapes.

Enclosures —————— Recently I went to the zoo looking for ideas. I found the empty enclosures intriguing and took a couple of pics. I think I want to do a project now. Anyone in Seattle with access to the zoo? Knows people at the @woodlandparkzoo ? Any help would be awesome! 😉 . . #zoo #project #enclosure #fineart #fineartphotography #fineartphotographer #seattle #woodlandparkzoo #mediumformat #cage #empty #phaseonephoto #landscapephotography #landscapephotographer (at Woodland Park Zoo) https://www.instagram.com/p/BoQPKbogpT8/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=c47k49lvyi1q
