Once in my life I saw an organ grinder and his monkey...some celebration going on at the state capitol in Wisconsin a number of years ago! This Capuchin and his troop live in Costa Rica and each morning, followed a path through the grounds of the resort where we stayed. A call would go out to grab our cameras!
This little guy seems to be watching to see how many paparazzi show up!
(By the "Exif date", I can't believe it's already been a month since we were there!)
@louannwarren Like you, Lou Ann, I don't think I've even seen these in zoos! They have such sweet, inquisitive faces, and if he passed the hat around, who would deny him a few coins?!
What a gorgeous cutie!! I love his tail wrapped around the tree!! I have seen one in a zoo but I can just imagine the thrill to see one in the wild!! What a trip!! Fav!
Magic shot of this amazing monkey Louise. Can't abide animals being made to perform! When I was a kid my parents took me to the circus but had to take me home after I whinged non-stop about the animals in cages and performing. Same at the Zoo!!
