Two more photos from my visit to Mogo Wildlife Park last week which now seems so long ago and in such a different time. How lucky we were to have gone when we did. We had our doubts about going but all was fine.
Both the photos show South American monkeys. Top photo is a really cute Cellicebus which is only found in a small area of Colombia and N Paraguay. Its habitat is under severe threat and soon these beautiful creatures will only be seen in captivity and we will all be the poorer for that. Below is a Pygmy Marmoset found over a wider area of South America but also with endangered habitats.
Taking photos through glass is always a rather hit or miss affair. Some cameras have a "shooting through glass" mode but this really only ensures that the autofocus ignores the glass. It does not remove reflections or grubby handprints. The best technique is to put the lens either on the glass or as close to the glass as possible.
