Kiko - Orangutan @ Washington DC / US National Zoo

    The Orangs were outside today, and seemed to be enjoying it. One of the younger ones was up on the O-Line, and was back and forth, and returned to the Great Ape House... Here the male Orang Kiko was being fed some Grapes, and was quite the photographic subject...

      I've had the opportunity to see Kiko in person(so to speak)while visting The National Zoo five years ago-your portrait truly does this impressive beast justice!
