Monkey Forest - Animal Photography

My selection for the #animalphotography contest hosted by @photocontests is a picture from the Monkey Forest in Bali, Indonesia.


Recently I had the opportunity to visit Bali and made a trip up to Ubud where I had the chance to visit the monkeys inside the monkey forest.
Once inside, you'll be able to see many, many monkeys bouncing from tree to tree and running after each other, claiming their territory while screaming at each other. Amidst all the mayhem there is a spot where people go and feed them bananas supplied by the workers. This is where you can see some more tame(not always, especially when there is fighting for bananas) moments from the tribes. There are plenty of mothers with their young in swing, sitting around and taking it all in. This is where I was able to capture this infant nursing from its mother, enjoying the warmth of the sun from the shade of the towering tree above.

Do you know what a group of monkeys is called?
