Foraging is a trial and error process for baby baboons. Finding the juiciest grass roots or corms can be a bit hit and miss, but by following mom’s example those tasty corms can be detected. Who says playing with food isn’t fun?

Great pics and thank goodness for spring and the food it brings.
One can almost hear the conversations in these images.
I wonder what they’re eating, looks like spring onions to me!
So sweet – love your photos Liz 🙂
Cute kids! 😉
so cute! i ❤
Great photos, I really enjoyed this post and shared it on Twitter.
Thanks Amy – appreciate the share on Twitter 🙂
I love your photos! Now I am curious as to what kind of camera and lenses you use?
Thanks Sam. I’m a Nikon fan. Started with a D200 and currently using a D810. My favourite lens (handheld) for fieldwork and wildlife is a 80-400mm; mostly use my D300 and prime micro lens – 105mm for macro. Landscape – D3s and tripod with medium and wide angle 12-24mm format lenses.
Sounds like a nice set-up! I have a canon myself, with a 300 mm lens. A 400 mm is something I really want but need to save for a while first!
