…as a young macaque! Found this wonderful picture of one cheeky monkey in Indonesia. I quote from the caption… “Wildlife photographers can spend days getting the perfect shot. But David Slater didn’t even have to lift a finger when a cheeky macaque stole his camera and took this self-portrait.” The Newquay Zoo macaques (see ‘Zoo Day‘) were just as lively but less cheeky as there were no snatched camcorders that day, particularly as the one I was using doesn’t belong to me and could have been a wee bit embarrassing. Just check out that grin…. seeing himself in the lens.
That is excellent! What paper was it in? Am loving the blog – thanx for sharing! Nick x

It was in last Saturday’s ‘i’ paper,…..excellent newspaper if you haven’t come across it, Nick. A newish daily from the ‘Independent’ stable, and at 20p a copy, affordable for everyone….. (and they don’t even have to pay me for this blatant plug). xx
