Since these monkeys are endangered it was a pleasant surprise to find them at Railay Beach in Krabi where this was taken. I have also seen them as far north as Kaeng Krachan. The two locations are hundreds of miles apart.
I am going to the bustling, chaotic, noisy, smelly, but energetic, vibrant, exotic megacity of Bangkok for a week. Once again I will see you on the flip side. God Bless and happy shooting!

Wikipedia: The dusky leaf monkey, spectacled langur, or spectacled leaf monkey (Trachypithecus obscurus) is a species of primate in the family Cercopithecidae. It is found in Peninsular Malaysia, Myanmar and Thailand, and can occasionally be found in Singapore. During the day, these small, folivorous primates divide in sub-groups and forage for vegetation and fruit throughout the tropical forests. According to the IUCN, the dusky leaf monkey's population is declining due to habitat loss, poaching, and anthropogenic land use, which prompted the IUCN to classify the species as endangered in 2015.

Seen at Roxborough State Park, Colorado.
I'm rounding out another fun wildlife Photostream page and will be off for awhile. Not sure of the duration, but hopefully not too long. I will be switching to travel photos when I return and hope to see you then. God Bless and happy shooting!
