Default When they pose is great when they come close is better.....



This guy was on the railings in the enclosure.... he posed happily but his friend saved the best bit for next



The hand is my other half fulfilling a life's dream getting up close and personal with a Lemur he stayed for a petting for ages...



This poor chap seemed to want to be outside but they were locked intheir pen caught him looking very wistfully at the outside world

Love your pictures. The Lemur is so cute, wonderful little "expression" on his face.
