Lemurs seem to get a lot of variations on their common names. This is the white-fronted brown lemur. But he’ll also answer to the white-headed lemur, the white-headed brown lemur, or the white-fronted lemur. I only saw a few of them while in Madagascar, on the island of Nosy Mangabe. And speaking of names, today’s word of the day is cathemerality. Which of course means active sporadically throughout the 24 hour day/night cycle. These guys are that. Nikon D200 with Nikkor 600mm f/5.6mm manual focus lens, ISO 400, f/5.6 at 1/125th of a second.

That lemur seems to be hiding from you. Nice shot, considering it is known for its over activity & that you were using a manual focus lens.
Thanks Sue. It was a challenge back in the days before the 200-400.
Playful Shot just pops out at you with those eyes
Happy Bday to your Special Girl
