  • Douc Langur—-Extremely Rare

  • The Sumatran Orangutan (Pongo abelii) is the rarer of the two species of orangutans. Living and endemic to Sumatra island of Indonesia, they are smaller than the Bornean Orangutan. The Sumatran Orangutan grows to about 4.6 feet tall and 200 pounds in males. Females are smaller, averaging 3 feet and 100 pounds. Compared to the Bornean Orangutan, the Sumatran Orangutans possess a lighter and longer pelage, a longer face, a smaller stature, and flanges that are covered in small white hairs. Wild Sumatran Orangutans in the Suaq Balimbing swamp have been observed using tools. An orangutan will break off a tree branch that’s about a foot long, snap off the twigs and fray one end. It then will use the stick to dig in tree holes for termites. They’ll also use the stick to poke a bees nest wall, move it around and catch the honey. In addition, orangutans use tools to eat fruit. When the fruit of the Neesia tree ripens, its hard, ridged husk softens until it falls open. Inside are seeds that the orangutans love, but they are surrounded by fiberglass-like hairs that are painful if eaten. A Neesia-eating orangutan will select a five-inch stick, strip off its bark, and then carefully collect the hairs with it. Once the fruit is safe, the ape will eat the seeds using the stick or its fingers. Although similar swamps can be found in Borneo, wild Bornean Orangutans have not been seen using these types of tools.

  • An Orangutan female – I noticed how beautiful her big eyes were and waited until she dropped her eyes downward to capture a moment of thought and solitude.

  • FEATURED OCT 2009 PLAYFUL PHOTOGENIC ANIMALS / FEATURED NOV 2009 THE WORLD AS WE SEE IT OR AS WE MISSED IT “You are growing tired, so very tired Space Wanderer…..Stare at the faintest star, Earthling, and think how heavy your limbs are growing. ...” / from The Sirens of Titan by Kurt Vonnegut Jr. I just love to connect through photos with my reverie. To free associate and see where they take me. I wonder where this fellow takes you with his eyes? I would love to hear about that. Shot at the Melbourne Zoo.

  • FEATURED NOV 2009 THE WORLD AS WE SEE IT OR AS WE MISSED IT Animal emotions always strike me with their honest unmasked beauty. Shot at a zoo. Nikon D70s;Nikon 70-300mm lens; f/4.8; 1/400sec;180mm focal length. / -Song written by Tadd Dameron; / performed by Sarah Vaughan_ / If you could see me now / you’d know how blue i’ve been / one look is all you’d need / to see the mood I’m in / perhaps then you’d realise / I’m still in love with you. If you could see me now / you’d find me being brave / and trying awfully hard / to make my tears behave / but that’s quite impossible / I’m still in love with you. You’ll happen my way / on some memorable day / and the month will be May / for a while / I’ll try to smile / but can I play the part? / Without my heart / behind the smile… The way I feel for you / I never could disguise / the look of love is written / plainly in your eyes / I think you’d be mine again / if you could see me now. Same guy, same shoot..my Earthling.. /
