Apes and Monkeys

Baby baboon jumps on his mum's back

and breast feeding

and breast feeding

I frighten him

This Gibbon in Burma tries to steal some food

a mountain gorilla stares at me

and gets closer

this Gorilla female looks with a kind of smile

and hugs her rare twin babies

He is not shy with me

In the Serengeti a Blue Monkey sits in a tree

in Kenya a Colobus Monkey...

jumps over to the next tree

to stare at me

a slightly different Colombus monkey in Rwanda

This mountain monkey  in Rwanda

a velvet monkey runs away...

to look at me from his tree

Big Howler monkey in Belize next to..

and a Spider Monkey

Walrus(Morse),whales(baleines) and polar bears in the Arctic around Spitzberg

The looming glaciers as seen from our fishing boat

a group of Walruses(Morses) approaches our boat

this big male  approaches the beach

and this huge one is already on the beach

our first Polar Bears seen from the boat

He is trying to find a way

he smells the food we have aboard

he turns around our boat

and faces us aggressively

I ate my baby seal(phoque)but I am still hungry!

We are so beautiful in this mirror!

The baby kisses his mother

who jumps to another iceberg

followed by her baby

Thousands of Guillemots standing on this vertical cliff

standing as if marching on the narrow platform

we passed icebergs sculptured by the ocean

a bearded seal(phoque) rests on the ice

A Humpback whale dives under our boat

and displays her tail as a good bye to us
