One of the largest New World monkeys.

See no evil? Hmmm... looks very wise to me.

Taking a break from Landscapes for just a moment, we came across the Berber Apes in the Middle Atlas Mountains, Morocco. Some Apes are content to let you feed them. Some run around like mad. I split of from the group to find one that wouldn't be so uncomfortable around just one person. This little guy came so close and grabbed my camera by the lens hood. It was actually a challenge to get him back far enough to shoot him. Normally the problem is getting them to come to you. Regardless, this guys face had so much personality.

There were quite a few monkeys in the temple area. People feed them nuts and fruits

I trudged upto this fella and decided to do a portrait - closeup

He just ducked back when i took the camera close to his face ... instinctively i guess

And very soon he returned to his munching ways,

guess he sensed that the camera and me were harmless after all

The proboscis monkey or long-nosed monkey, known as the bekantan in Malay, is a reddish-brown arboreal Old World monkey that is endemic to the south-east Asian island of Borneo. This species co-exists with the Bornean Orang-utan. The proboscis monkey is a large species, being one of the largest monkey species native to Asia. Only the Tibetan macaque and a few of the gray langurs can rival its size. Proboscis monkeys are known to make various vocalizations. When communicating the status of group, males will emit honks.

The mandrill is monkey recognized by its olive-colored fur and the colorful face and rump of males, a coloration that grows stronger with sexual maturity; females have duller colours. This coloration becomes more pronounced as the monkey becomes excited and is likely to be an example of sexual selection. The coloration on the rump is thought to enhance visibility in the thick vegetation of the rainforest and aids in group movement.

 

Le mandrill est un primate de la famille des cercopithécidés, apparenté au babouin et très proche du drill.

What will they come up with next? How about a Domo in a Hello Kitty costume in a Domo costume?

I am still trying to edit all my shots taken last weekend in London but thought I would upload this shot of a monkey taken at London Zoo - they are such cute little characters and could have spent a few hours photographing them!

Monkey Orchid / orchis simia. Hartslock NR, Goring-on-Thames, Oxfordshire. 31/05/18.

 

My very first sighting of a Monkey Orchid ... considerably shorter and paler than the Hybrid Lady x Monkey Orchids growing nearby.

 

It was a fabulously unkempt little orchid with its jumble of small monkey-like flowers. Their curvy 'limbs and tails' pointed outwards randomly and for me, it was love at first sight. The Monkey Orchid is one I will commit to memory effortlessly and whenever I think of it, I will wear a smile!

Found in the Tropical Forests of Central and South America the Squirrel Monkey prefers the middle canopy of rainforests, but can adapt to different kinds of forest.

Although not yet endangered, the Squirrel Monkey is among many rainforest animals threatened by deforestation . They are also captured for the pet trade and for medical research.

The monkeys are omnivores eating primarily fruits and insects. They live together in large groups of up to 500 members, and it is common to see them in mixed groups with other primates.

The mantled howler monkey (Alouatta palliata) is a large animal often seen and heard in Parque Nacional Manuel Antonio in south-central Costa Rica. It feeds mostly on leaves and foliage and spends much of its time resting and sleeping in trees.
