Olinka and Wolodja are enjoying lazy Summer days in the Rotterdam Zoo. They live in separate enclosures for the time being but the grass is green in both enclosures.
Olinka inspecting her garden.
She seems to be satisfied with what she saw.
When Nel visited the zoo Wolodja was taking things very easy.
Maybe the warm weather made our ‘Teddy’ very sleepy.
To freshen up your memory here’s the ‘history in nut shell’ of Olinka:

While Wolodja was resting Olinka was active in the water. Of course, a real lady must take a look in the mirror every now and then.
Even an elderly polar bear lady likes to play with toys!
Wolodja was visiting the Napland
I wonder if he was dreaming of a big salmon ….
Even though Wolly and Olinka don’t live together they both show same kind of behaviour.
