      It shows how much luck you need sometimes. This is in the middle of the jungle and here they are sitting where the sun comes through a gap in the canopy, and then of course the little guy (or girl) turning to face us.

      Thanks for letting me know. I'd read the BBC story you mention on your blog. It is some much needed good news for the gorillas of the DRC.
