This one is from Kibale National Park in Uganda. I saw thirteen different species of primates on that trip, including this red-tailed monkey. Wish I had a little bit better lighting conditions, but I did the best I could given the situation and the bright sky in the background. I don’t know much about these monkeys, other than the fact that they have red tails and they were featured in the popular BBC youtube series, Funny Talking Animals — Walk on he Wild Side(click here).

…red tails and white noses??? Is that white spot his nose or a tuft of hair under his nose? Other than the proboscis monkey I thought primates had little noses. He has facial markings?hairs? as though he were a member of our beloved bearded Red Sox!
