Lovely shot, I wonder if daddy was surprised at the colur of his new baby!
Thank you! I am not sure if they are both females, but I am curious. I will look online to see if there is a way to tell (other than the obvious way) :) I just found this video, I am not sure if it is the same species but it looks like it. I never saw them in water but apparently they like it. Great video to check out: http://dsc.discovery.com/videos/planet-earth-freshwater-macaques.html
Are both of the adults females? Super photo!
Thanks so much! I was lucky to be at the right place at the right time.
You got me - that is just the best photo ever!!
