Capuchin monkeys
Please meet the capuchin monkeys, they live near the waterfall. Their name resembles the cowls worn by the Capuchin order of the Catholic friars with their "caps" of hair. They are commonly found in Central and South America and are considered the most intelligent New World monkeys. When we fed them, they looked around to check if no one was watching, grabbed the food and ran to the branches of the tree.

Good photos! I have always wanted to see them in their habitat, but when we went to Costa Rica, I saw no wildlife at all, except butterflies and a few iguanas.
Thanks for the visit, Cris. I can't believe you've seen Duke Chapel - but that is great!
They look like teeny tiny little people. Such great photos...Thanks for sharing.
Hugs,

Hello dear friends... aren't they cute? Thanks for visiting!
Have you seen "The Night at the Museum"....you would like it....the monkey is so cute and is the same kind you are talking about here.
And I love the pretty roses Cris....

Neat pictures Cris. Not something you see everyday around my neck of the woods.
The roses are beautiful. I am fresh out of rose pictures I haven't used though.
Oh you keep making me want to come visit those falls! I love monkeys and couldn't imagine being out in freedom with them!
What charming little creatures! Your kids must've really enjoyed them.
It's such fun to see wild animals in their native habitat. Thanks for sharing these wonderful photos!
