Flakes

I spent yesterday with Flakes, a group that broke off from Abby's group several years ago. This is the part of the forest I've liked best so far (at least before the river flooded and cut us off from the main road). I was able to get a few pictures and videos, so enjoy:

This is what it's like to do research here. The girl in the photo is Rhiannon, the field manager.


Monkeys through the vines and monkeys playing in the vines

A baby monkey (possibly Darth Vader) making an adorable toothless threatface during play with his daddy, the alpha male Quijote. Here's a video of the action: Flakes Play


Me in the jungle! If you look closely, you can tell that fully half of my forehead is swollen from mosquito bites. Ridiculous.
