To monkey island

Starting at 6.30  drove up to the Chagos river, hopped into a tiny boat with an Aussie and an American couple and zoomed off into Gaton lake.
Three types of monkey, howler, capuchin and tamarind.
The little islands are home to sloths which I saw high up sleeping, plenty of birds and many other creatures including these bats.
A cayman.
A small iguana.
Termite and ants nests in the trees. 

Wonderful views and light. Could have spent more time in and out of the creeks.

Then to a butterfly, frog and sloth sanctuary.
A pika running off with a flower which it then buried like a squirrel.
A yellow caracara.
Thought i was having lobster for lunch but turned out to be three enormous langoustines which weren't very nice with minimal meat.
