Just returning form a trip to Ecuador and the Amazon where we encountered several species of monkeys and tamarins. Mid-morning after the troop had eaten they began grooming fairly close to the deck of the lodge and offered us some very nice looks.

It can often be challenging to get these types of species out of the dark and without obstruction. Nice work, Chuck. The interaction is a nice bonus.

I like the activity you caught in this image. Very typical of these guys and the details in this image show it well. Also like how you have them framed with greenery. Thanks for sharing.
