There was also this cheeky monkey. It seems it he roams the place extorting food from people, hence the crisp...
8,

Uh oh! He spotted us at the picnic table...
9,

It wasn't long after this that my friend, after a bit of a struggle lost most of his pork pie to the greedy pig!
10,

More Here. Also any help in identifying any of the creatures in here would be most helpful (or links to sites that may help)

C&C positively encoraged as usual.

Thanks

Nice shots. I love the otter especially, though to be picky, it's a shame the focus is on the end of his nose rather than the eyes. They're all well processed - contrast and saturation are spot on for me.

8-10 is a Squirrel Monkey. Not very good with bird IDs though, so someone else will have to do that. From an eye only, I haven't the faintest what 7 is either.

It's a horse or course. (or a donkey but likely a horse)

Yep it's a horse.

And thanks for the monkey identification too.

I didn't notice the otter pic was focussed on the nose until you said.

I still need to practice getting the focus and DoF right for closeups such as that. I also had a really nice picture of a Kite but the focus was between its eye and neck so destroying the picture as the eye was OOF.
