26th October 2015. Berenty, Madagascar.
.
Sakalava weavers and their hanging nests (there is only one bird visible but there are others inside the nests).
.
White man’s burden? Ringtailed lemur sitting on wooden sculpture.
.
Plants from the desert garden near the cabins.

… and also, a chameleon….

.
More dancing sifakas, this one coming straight towards me.

… and finally, one on a roof.

The second and third plants we have similar ones here.
I have read that there may have been a land bridge connection from South America to Madagascar via Antarctica even after Africa and India separated out, so that may be why.
The Sifakas really do dance, don’t they. More skateboard shots here 🙂
Or surfing. I may be able to find a surfing shot to suit but likely no time in the next couple of months.
