These primates are not swamp monkeys (check wikipedia), perhaps they are rotated with them. very nice picture, anyway. Monkeys are so fast and active that makes them hard to focus on.
 
The Swamp Monkeys and these (and 1 other species I cant think of right now) all share the same exhibit.
 
It's nice to know it is not AWM as I have seen them before but don't recall seeing Red-tailed Guenon before, at least not in this trip, but then, I just recently started taking notes in zoo trips.

There would have been a Red-tailed Guenon at Twycross when you visited (can't say if you actually saw it, of course!).

Back then (2003) I never wrote down anything; and combined with the limited I knew (But I have improved though, right? :cool:) there is little or no chance that I would have remembered seeing them, even if I did.

But I'm getting better and have also discovered a little something called a pen and notebook, so when I'll go to Twycross again next year, I hope to note down what I see as the intelligent person I sometimes pretend to be.

Yes but you will not see the Red-tailed Guenon at Twycross now as they have sent it to the Isle of Wight!

Well then, Houston will then have to do it for me, don't think it will be worth it going out to the Isle of Wight as there are so many major zoos I want to see first on the UK mainland.
