More Monkey Business

That's no way to make friends...

Despite the fact that I love the monkeys of Ubud, and that they seem to like me, I meet an occasional monkey who got up on the wrong side of the tree.
Just like humans...

Monkey on my Back (again...)

My new friend in Ubud's Monkey Forest

I always have to visit the Monkey Forest to say hello to my funny friends there.
I was crouched down, getting some nice shots of a mother with her baby, when this guy climbed up my back, sat down on my shoulder, and started grooming me.

It's not the first time. The monkeys seem to think I'm one of the pack.
The men who work in the forest don't take too kindly to it though. They feel the need to chase away my little buddies.

Angie wasn't with me, so I had to take this 'blind' photo on my own. He's sitting on my right shoulder...
