Really nice work. Wish I could get the raccoons to pose in the daylight instead of raiding the cat food at 3 AM.

...i could get photos of foxes, ocelots, ringtails, pacas, bats, owls and so much more.

if the white faced capuchins and spider monkeys ever chill out and don't take off as soon as they see me, i should be able to get some good shots of them.

The first monkey is certainly yawning; he even looks sleepy.

You do such excellent work! It's a pleasure to view.
