White-headed Capuchin Monkey and Baby (Cebus capucinus)
White-headed Capuchin monkey and baby
Photo Details: Canon 1Ds Mark III, 420mm (300mm + 1.4TC), ISO 400, f/7.1, 1/320 sec
Since I’ll be away for a shot while monkeying around I thought why not post a photo of a monkey. This White-headed Capuchin monkey with her baby (Cebus capucinus) was taken in Costa Rica this past April. They were part of a troupe of 50+ monkeys that moved right on by me in the jungle. Is it me or does the baby’s expression make this photo?
And before I forget I wanted to be sure to announce the winner of the free lens rental from BorrowLenses. After all this photo was taken using one of their Canon 300mm lenses. And the winner is….

You got me at the quick here with this one, Jim….
I have a Personal affection for these little guys.
A close friend use to “mother them” and socialize them
for about 6 months in her home
for a group called Helping Hands where they worked like
Service Animals helping quadraplegics…
I swear they can DO anything… and live alot longer
than large breed dogs..
Kudos on this image.
