Despite using a 300mm lens on a camera body with a cropped sensor, I'm still not having a lot of luck in the jungle house. Nothing ever really comes into range for me to get a good sharp shot off. Today was no different. I was looking for birds when I heard a crash and saw branches moving. I had to run like mad to a better view point. I eventually spotted this monkey contemplating life on a branch. He (she?) stayed there for more than half an hour. I say contemplating life because he wasn't doing anything. Usually they're feeding here on young leaves but this chap was chillin' out. Dusky leaf monkeys have bright white rings around their eyes. Their eyelids are white as well. It's amazing to see them blink. They're also known as spectacled langurs.
