Attention!

This is an animal I have wanted to get an image of for some time, unfortunately they normally run off, it is a Patas Monkey apparently related to the far more common Vervet Monkey, but far more colourful. Taken in Murchison Falls National Park Uganda.

Standing like he belongs in the Ugandan Army, quite the at attention pose. Pretty much perfect. If this is through glass I can't tell.

Gary,
I should have said "open" window sorry about that, although the pop up roof was open I really needed a lower POV.
Mike,
Thanks very much
