One very hot day summer’s a small group of vervet monkeys visited our garden.
As they took turns drinking from a bird bath, this mother sat to one side cuddling her young baby. The graceful tenderness of her motherly love is clear to see.

Monkey families are the best, and we could learn a thing or two 🙂
