It was a great night walk! Although called “Slow” Loris, this one moved surprisingly fast—until it finally paused and gave us a perfect opportunity for a nice photo session.

It’s been a relatively quiet time at BRL, Danum Valley, with few sightings of Orangutans and Red Leaf Monkeys overall. But we were lucky to have a close and special encounter with this beautiful and charming monkey!

– a special trip to Tawau for specific Photography target, but the bird does not show up last evening, so morning we decided to have casual birding and for me this guy show up is better than any other. it move fast but I manage to got few shots of the beautiful primate.
One of the most common primates in Tangkoko—often seen moving in groups. They may look intimidating, but they’re generally not aggressive. Still, it’s best to keep a respectful distance just to be safe!
