I was standing by the entrance of the Chinese Gardens waiting on Pam and Sarah, innocently minding my own business. 
I felt like someone was watching me so I glanced around... and what do I see??
A MONKEY! Perfectly innocently looking for a handout - he was patiently waiting to see if it would happen. Out in the open area, not in the park and plainly not contained!He braved up and came over to ask - me being the scrapbooker I am saw the perfect opportunity for a picture:
But I was so startled by my friend, I jumped for my camera and scared the little guy. He took off running:
I was watching him in amazement - and then I realized he had a mate who was coming down the tree next to me. When I scared the one, they skittered off to the side, paused to see if the handouts where coming...
Found out they weren't - and politely left, chattering about the lack of treats.
We have stray cats and dogs in the wild there - here I suppose we have tail-less cats and monkeys!
How cool!! Now I will be scanning the trees looking for our little neighbors :-)

That is AMAZING! My little human monkeys would LOVE to play with your Singapore monkeys:)
Fascinating creatures aren't they! However, I've seen their big scary teeth too! Yeppers, no handouts for those little beggars!
Bring tossable treats with you now :)
WOW!!! Raelee said "man, I wish I was with Granny so monkey's would walk with me!"
