A worldwide community photographing and learning about wildlife
Cercopithecus mitis
Despite its name, the blue monkey is not noticeably blue: it has little hair on its face, and this does sometimes give a blue appearance. Typical sizes are from 50 to 65 cm in length (not including the tail, which is almost as long as the rest of the animal), with females weighing a little over 4 kg and males up to 8 kg.

I spotted this blue monkey in Kakamega national park.
