All lemurs are acrobatic, but the eastern lesser bamboo lemur, also known as the eastern grey bamboo lemur, takes it to another level. These guys are quick and athletic and can disappear in an instant into the thick forest. This one hung around just long enough for me to grab a few shots before it bounded off, looking for bamboo I suppose, in Madagascar’s Andasibe-Mantadia National Park. Nikon D200 with Nikkor 80-200mm lens (at 120mm) ISO 400, f/2.8 at 1/125th of a second.

Great photo!
Thanks Kathryn.
The face! Just look at that face!
Lemurs are my favorite.
Oh my goodness, “picture perfect” as they say. . . you caught it in mid-sentence 🙂
Quite an expression. You caught the moment!
What a great shot!
Thanks Karen. This is an old one from the archives. Need to get back to Madagascar soon and get some new images.
