This is a brown mouse lemur that I photographed on a night hike on the island of Nosy Mangabe, off the northeast coast of Madagascar. I’m not sure what that particular fruit is, but the lemur seemed determined to make a meal out of it.
Nikon D200 with Nikkor 80-200mm lens (at 200mm) ISO 400, f/5.6 at 1/60th of a second, two Nikon SB-600 flash units
The mystery fruit appears to be about half the size of the lemur. My hat is off to you for your intrepid nocturnal hikes in exotic locations around our globe, Sean. I don’t even like going outside my front door at night! : )
