🐾💕Xiao Qi Ji grapples with the Kong after his adorable milkie stupor *LIVE* on 6/11🍼🐼💫

This video is continuing from a couple hours after the last video on Friday 6/11, when a frisky cubbie frolicked in the rain then conked out in a tree. Xiao Qi Ji awoke and was back indoors seeking out mama as I was waiting in line to re-enter the Panda House. I was looking at the webcam and could see Mei nursing him, hoping he wouldn't pass out again after feeding 😬 Xiao Qi Ji was just sitting there on top of rock in a daze, then Mei swings by to nuzzle and he fell on his back, adorably belly up! Perfect photo op with our little international superstar cubbie, so I zoomed in close while he lolled and licked his paws. He flopped around different spots in the habitat, played with boo for a minute, then settled down to grapple with Mei's Kong. I absolutely love when he plays with the Kong! It is the most curious opponent that never gets knocked down and only makes a move after he makes a move 😂 So he tries sitting on it, or maybe marking it. Then finally rolls on his back and does the acrobatic Kong spinning act using all of his sweet little paws. All followed by a bout of Kong biting and cradling it like a baby! The whole family goes into their yards, where Qi Ji is back at slipping out of trees while proud parents Mei Xiang and Tian Tian happily savor their sugarcane. Thanks for watching! 😍❣🐼 The drilling sounds you hear inside the habitat are from renovations as the construction crew is working on fixing up Xiao Qi Ji's future habitat, which is adjacent to Mei's. I turned down the volume during the drilling so it would be easier on the ears, but you can still hear talking. This video was shot in person at Smithsonian's National Zoo by me, with my trusty camcorder on June 11, 2021 sporadically between 11am and 12pm.
