Many ducks stayed this year.. Maybe because of our unusually warmer winter so far.. I just thought they looked to pretty flying in the sunset sky!

Male Black Lemur...........................

Lemur comes from the Latin word for "ghosts" and was probably inspired by their staring eyes (which glow reddish in the dark) and silent, secretive habits. Lemurs are the most primitive primates, once ranging throughout the world, but now confined primarily to the island of Madagascar.

Although this species is referred to as the Black Lemur, the name is applicable only to the male which usually has a soft black fur. The female is usually a lighter shade of brown or russet, with lighter under parts and ear tufts. Both sexes have neck ruffs.

Black lemurs have eyes in front of their heads and are considered among the first animals with stereoscopic vision. The mouth region is elongated into a fox-like snout. The hind legs are longer than the front legs, and the second toes have strongly curved grooming claws.

This is just one lemur..All that fluff next to him is his long tail ..Its hard to tell the way its curled behind that leaf..: )
