Description:

Description: This sweet monkey was foraging on the ground when I first saw him from a second-story walkway at our hotel. When he saw me, he hurried to a nearby tree and climbed it. The next thing I knew, he popped out of the foliage at eye level with me. After we both got a good look at each other, we went our separate ways. It occurs to me now he may have been hoping for a handout. Well, all I had on me was bottled water and Purell. Sorry! At the next stop, I made up for it by feeding the cats at the hotel. I am going to identify this provisionally as a Grivet monkey or a Bale Mountains Vervet monkey. He was a little vague on the subject. If anyone can identify him more precisely, I'd be delighted.
