  • Jabiru

    The Jabiru’s skin pouches are all veiny

    image

    But the adults are kind of cute from further away.

    image

    The adults search for food on the ground.

    image

    For their babies.

    image

    Then they fly it up to the nest

    image

    And land

    image

    Carefully

    image

    And share the food.

    image

    They have a lot of big babies

    image

    So they need a lot of food.

  • Greedy Monkeys

    There is a rope set up to bring the plastic bucket of fruit into this wooden bucket of fruit for the monkeys.

    image

    The monkeys like to help with the rope.

    image

    The fruit would probably come faster without their help.

    image

    Because with their help they have to be careful not to give the monkeys rope burn.

    image

    When the fruit is in the barrel, the howlers mostly scare away the capuchins.

    image

    So the capuchins have to quickly grab everything they can and run.

    image

    Before there’s a barrel of monkeys

    image

    Then they sit on the side watching for another opportunity.

    image

    While eating their fistfuls of course

    image

    When the barrel is empty they lick it out

    image

    Which can’t be great for their fur

    image

    It’s easy to tell which monkey was in the barrel

    image

    She will never look dignified again

    image

    No matter how hard she tries.

    image

    Fruit is messy.

  • More Capuchin Monkeys

    Did you think that was all the pictures Kerri took of capuchin monkeys?

    image33

    You’re not that silly, are you?

    image36

    Obviously you need another dozen pictures of this monkey with a banana peel

    image39

    Even if I don’t have much else to say about him

    image42

    Because he made lots of funny faces while eating

    image45

    Did you not want to see a monkey tongue?

    image48

    Really?

    image51

    Then you need to find a new webpage

    image54

    Because this is where monkey tongues hang out.

    image57

    So there!

    image60

    Dead leaves are not as good as banana peels

    image63

    But he’ll still try them.

  • Brown Capuchin Monkeys

    These are brown capuchin monkeys

    image

    They will eat anythnig

    image

    They even hunt lizards and baby birds

    image

    So they’re not as timid as the howler monkeys.

    image

    They are very energetic.

    image

    They have hands.

    image

    Just like you

    image

    Isn’t it amazing.

    image

    The grown up boys have brows that make them look grumpy

    image

    The younger ones are cuter

    image

    Except when they’re angry.

    image

    But they got fruit so they were pretty content.
