Monkeys!!!

Macaques monkeys - a nuisance, but very cute (especially when they're not stealing your lunch!) Time for a sleep after all that exercise, playing, and flying through branches and trees.
And yet another way to sleep - whatever works.
Now these......are proboscis monkeys. Very rare - they say there's only about 250 in existence. They have an elongated nose that turns downward. We trekked through the jungle at Bako National Park and waited just for a glimpse of them. After zooming in the best I could, this is as a photo that I managed to take. We were told by our guide that we were very lucky to see them.
