Black-Capped Squirrel Monkey

This is the second photograph I wanted to share with you from London Zoo. Monkey’s have always interested me as they are not only close to us humans but there are also so many different species, sizes and types. The black-capped squirrel monkey pictured above is one of the smaller monkeys I have seen in zoos. I was lucky enough to have him sat relatively close to my camera, although he made an extremely high pitched noise I feel I managed to capture the details in his fur and eyes as well. This type of monkey is found in countries such as Bolivia, Brazil and Peru in South America. I’m not sure how he likes London Zoo but judging from his expression, I don’t think he liked his photograph being taken!
