Howler Monkey Moment

in #animalphotography • 8 years ago

A loud crashing in the treetops earlier called my attention to a group of howler monkeys on the move. They paused close by for a few minutes and I managed to capture a couple of nice shots. A mother and baby were close by but too hidden in the dense tangle of vines that hang through all the trees in the jungle, to get a clear shot of her and the baby who climbed crazily running all over her body while she stopped to try and rest. You can just make out the lighter color of the babies tail in the middle of her belly.

It may be just my human imagination but there always seems to be a look of melancholy in the faces of the howler monkeys.

Namaste

    Thanks for your comment and resteem but Oops you used the wrong word - try DESCRIPTION ☺️instead of descrimination , which in itself is spelled discrimination 😉

        Monkeys look cute and dangerous at the same time. Nice photography.

            When I look at his teeth I feel that he is dangerous and when I look at his face I feel that he is shy and cute :) Nice shots!

            I agree - as with a number of animals , they have the means to be deadly but choose mostly a quiet life unless they have to defend themselves or their families. Thanks for such a thoughtful comment xx
