"Hello!" "Hello!" "Hello!" "Hello!"

Night monkeys (also called Owl monkeys) live in the Amazon rainforest. These four were spotted in Ecuador. They have “the only truly nocturnal monkey species and have huge eyes to help them see.” (From here.)

It's "crested black macaque" time!

This primate took a self-portrait with a camera it snagged from a photographer. 

After the human got his camera back, he checked to see if any photos had been taken. There had!
"[The macaque] must have taken hundreds of pictures by the time I got my camera back, but not very many were in focus." 
From the Daily Mail.

That's one small monkey!

Actually, it's a baby pygmy marmoset named Reillo. (But she's still a primate!)

Pygmy Marmosets!

Over at the Perth Zoo, they have two new additions: baby Pygmy Marmosets! They may be the world's smallest monkeys... but they're giants in the world of cute!
