India sensed my lack of topics and sent me some monkeys to fill the void. I think I had posted previously that I've only ever seen monkeys around when I'm with a visitor (or when I myself am being a tourist). Well in the past week I've had 3 monkey sightings - quite amazing I must say. The first one I saw sitting on the back of a bicycle, it was so cute! The second was just chilling out on the side of the road. And the third (well, third and forth because it was a momma and baby) were on the tree just outside my house. I noticed them when I went out to check how my laundry was drying (even though it is super hot here is it also super humid which means laundry takes forever to dry) and I saw something moving in the tree right in front of me. There was a little baby monkey playing around just 10 feet away. I quietly walked into my house and grabbed my camera to get a shot. The momma monkey didn't like me taking a photo so she quickly grabbed up baby and hopped to the next tree (I was a bit afraid she was going to come and steal my laundry) but I did manage to get this quick shot - click on it for a bigger view to see the baby monkeys' face. I have to say, as cool as the hummingbird is, it is waaaay cooler to have a monkey just a few feet from your balcony.
