Ted's Excellent Pictures Taken Around Madagascar
November 2018
Crowned Lemurs
Laid-back Crowned Lemur
The nocturnal Northern Sportive Lemur - sleeps during the day with it's eyes open
The alien-like glowing ears are just a fluke caused by being sunlit from behind
The Indri Lemur does not survive in captivity and is difficult to get close to in the wild
On the other hand, the Ring-tailed Lemur does survive in captivity (if there is free wifi)
Another text message?!
What are you looking at?
Who let this paparazzo into our enclosure? It's like a zoo in here!
Ring-tailed Mongoose
Tsingy Rary : sharp karst formation from weathered limestone/dolomite
"Tsingy" is a Malagasy word meaning "walk on tiptoe" or "where one cannot walk barefoot" (that's how sharp!)
Suspension bridge across the tsingy
Red Tsingy : from eroded red laterite
When they said they have the Giant Atlas Moth, they weren't kidding!
Bats too!
They were hanging upside down, as bats are wont to do,
so I turned the pictures around 180° because they're more fun to look at this way!
Well if it isn't the Geico Gecko!
I just knew this hotel was a celebrity hangout!!
And now, a whole bunch of chameleon pictures:
Mmm - Grasshopper!
Another way to look at northern Madagascar:
Just ask for "une tay-ash-bey, s'il vous plait"
