Red colobuses are Old World monkeys of the genus Piliocolobus. Red colobuses are highly sensitive to hunting and habitat destruction, and have been referred to as probably the most threatened taxonomic group of primates in Africa. They live in large troops which can number up to 80 individuals, the average being somewhere around 20 to 40 monkeys. The diet of red colobus monkeys consists mainly of young leaves, flowers, and unripe fruit. They are also known to eat charcoal or clay to help combat the cyanide some leaves may contain.

The Red-crested Turaco is a fairly large, colorful, long-tailed regal bird. It is easily identified by its vivid red crest, white face and yellow beak. Eyes are red and the beak is yellowish-green. Its plumage is overall green. They measure 19 – 20 in (47.5-50 cm) from beak to tip of tail and weigh around 210-325g. Although they are social among the species, they are shy and remained concealed among the branches and seldom come to ground, except for water or food.
These abstract lines always caught my attention, so I couldn’t resist taking this shot when walking past it with my camera
Macro Mondays ….. Theme "Red"
The healthy option, an apple a day keeps the doctor away, as the saying goes. Also a favourite choice of one of your five a day. Clearly an appealing choice of fruit.
Thanks for your views, faves and comments very much appreciated.
