We don't have these types of monkeys in Costa RIca. Thanks for sharing. He looks like he ventures around buildings and people, but he still keeps a cautious eye on the lookout.

@Mahon: He's totally free! These monkeys are kind of sacred here and just come to humans for food.

A very expressive face, but I can't begin to guess what it's thinking... (I like the blue on the right to add a contrasting color to you photo, JM.)
