The lesser mouse lemur, also known as the gray mouse lemur, is one of the smallest primates in the world. They can be very quick in the trees, and also nocturnal, making them a challenge to photograph. I encountered this one on a late-night hike in central Madagascar. Nikon D200 with Nikkor 80-200mm lens (at 200mm) ISO 320, f/8 at 1/60th of a second, two Nikon SB-600 flash units.

——- That closes and opens ; only
——- Something in me understands
——- The voice of your eyes is deeper
——- Than all roses ) nobody, not even

Considering its size & penchant for perpetual motion & that you observed it at night. this is quite a capture, Sean.
