Male Parson's Chameleon
I got carried away watching and photographing this chameleon and didn't realise that our guide had gone off in search of other animals for us to see. Shortly after realising he had disappeared he came rushing back beckoning us yet again to follow him.
This time he had come across a troop of Red Bellied Lemurs and as a special treat one had a tiny baby, no more than a week old.
You can tell the males and females apart easily with these lemurs. The male has white patches below the eye whereas the female doesn't. For our first lemur experience in the wild I couldn't believe how tame they were, especially with such a young one. We watched a mother grooming her baby's fur no more than 3 metres away. Soon we were joined by what I assumed was the rest of the troop as we were surrounded by 2 males and 4 females. They didn't seem bothered by us at all and seemed happy enough just to watch us.
