Field Notes

Notes:

It's a common sight along the roads in these places that monkeys rather wait for the people to feed them than to go into the forest to look for food. It was strange to see this one feeding on these beautiful wild flowers. Beneath this busy youngster still elder ones are waiting by the road side!
