A note about "Photo of the Day": I recognize that this daily feature has not been as exciting lately. I often visit zoos, museums, and other places rich in photo ops throughout the year, but during the past several months my opportunities to do so have been limited.

Thank you for your patience.

I sat and watched the gorillas at the Bronx Zoo for awhile several years ago. I remember one male whose countenance & behavior left me with the conviction that he was clinically depressed.
