MONKEYS GALORE

For them its their play time, running about the neighbourhood, creating a ruckus wherever they go...destroying and disturbing everyone and everything...for us its sheer terror. But when they are just relaxing about, its when you notice they are not that different than humans...








No matter how many time you try to chase...they just sit ignoring you busy in their own world. I know I caught them in their private moments, but, if they so openly do their thingy, who am I to be blamed, eh?
