Christmas morning was dull and overcast which was probably just as well for the Baboons as they appeared to have enjoyed Christmas Eve.

Must look at the larger image to get the full value of this great image!  I can see this as a big poster!  Great shot, thanks for sharing.

Got a real kick out of this one, Ken! Perhaps an early jump on the stocking stuffers? sad

Wonderful pose Ken, the large version has to be seen to be appreciated,  I would place the baboon higher in the frame if possible. devil

That's hilarious. It does look like he over-indulged last night.
It would be better, I think, if there could have been more light on this side, but probably nothing you could do about that.  That is an incredible pose, though!!!
Great catch.

Fun!  I like the idea of highest possible placement in frame.
