Every spotting is a puzzle piece in the jigsaw puzzle of life. When the picture begins to appear, there is no reason to cease working.

Vervet aka blue ball monkey commented on by KarenSaxton Manyara, Tanzania4 years ago

In Kenya, we were parked at Nakuru while our guide went to do the paperwork. He warned us not to open the door or windows before he headed to the office. Next thing we knew, a vervet with tiny baby popped in HIS window and she went for his lunch that was on the seat. Took some doing but we mostly saved his lunch and scared her out, then managed to secure the window.

A few years later, we were in Vic Falls and my mom(who is getting on in years and isn't always as aware of her surroundings as she should be) had one start to climb up her leg. I saw it and chased it off as it had two hands on her ankle.

Little buggers.

In Kenya we had blue monkeys come up to our balcony and stare us down - our room windows were closed. Sorry guys, not today, we told them.

Thank you. Had we not been lounging on the deck we wouldn't have seen them at all.

Thanks Zlatan, it was my first thought, but I'm horrible at local shorebirds.

Thank you - at this point warbler species is a good start.

Thank you, again. I somehow must have hit mammals as I hit Mission Wild. They are next to each other in my personal drop down menu. I'll make sure to keep a closer look

They are super cute - and if you haven't seen one in the wild, they are really cool. Every fiber is alert - so alive

Yes! I see them fairly often here. It gives me hope when others dispair
