via IFTTT Grandma Gorilla Biddy's 50th birthday was on the 19th of December 2023. Biddy is getting steamrolled by the silverback. The weather is quite miserable outside as well, so not the best start to Biddy's birthday and sadly it didn't get any better. Biddy climbs over the log and Oumbi is either in the mood because the backdoors are closed or he just feels a bit frisky and he's not getting any. I suspect it might be the latter. They had their breakfast so he can't be too hungry. He's granting ( inaudible to the camera). Biddy seems the only one interested in him as she moves closer to him. He calms down and sits for a minute, but then he gets up and starts charging towards Biddy who was eating some of the leftover breakfast cabbage. Her quick reaction made her roll out of the way. It looks like Oumbi gave her a little kick, but playing the video frame by frame it doesn't look like he kicked her on purpose. I think he just lifted his leg to get over Biddy quickly and it touched her slightly. Oumbi went into the corner, and Biddy got up and just gave him that side look lol. Ozala, Asante and Shufai in the background. Biddy started to climb to the top, struggling a bit there. With the weather being so wet I'm sure her arthritis is playing up. Oumbi watched her climb up. Biddy sits on the pole where Asante normally sits. A little later she climbs up to the nesting area, rearranging the wood wool and having a little rest. A couple of close-ups of the gorgeous lady. With this one being a grand milestone birthday, I wished that Biddy would have been treated like a queen on her special day. It wasn't to be for whatever reason. I wish she could have understood me when I told her, that thousands of people haven't forgotten and wished you a Happy Birthday. There were a few leeks outside at lunchtime. Oumbi got himself some and Biddy managed to get some pieces.
