Time to start mixing the rest of the world back in among all the Africa photos. I photographed this sloth earlier in the year down in Peru. She had just finished eating fruits of the cecropia tree (their favorite) and was looking mighty satisfied. It’s a tight composition, but you can see that her head is almost completely turned around as she took a not-so-quick look at the camera before turning her attention back to the business at hand. Nikon D500 with Nikkor 500mm PF lens, ISO 1600, f/5.6 at 1/200th of a second.

She looks like a happy, well-fed sloth. Bob Ross would surely approve!
They did a great segment on sloths on 60Minutes the other night. Do they always look like they’re smiling?
As opposed to the hustlebro sloth?
LOVE IT !
She does look happy!!
I am reminded of all the parents who post photos of their little ones covered in spaggetti. Even so, this sloth made me smile.
