Caught in the Act - Spectral Tarsier Takes a Daytime Siesta!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot captured by Nick Garbutt, we witness the elusive and enchanting spectral tarsier indulging in an unusual daytime roost. Perched high up on a majestic fig tree within Tangkoko National Park, Sulawesi, Indonesia, this tiny primate seems to have thrown caution to the wind. Known for their nocturnal habits, these wide-eyed creatures are usually spotted under the moonlight. However, our mischievous friend here has decided to break tradition and catch some Z's during daylight hours! Perhaps it found a particularly cozy spot amidst the lush foliage of its favorite Ficus sp. , or maybe it simply couldn't resist taking advantage of a sunny nap opportunity. With its large round eyes and delicate fingers clinging onto branches with precision, this spectral tarsier looks like it stepped straight out of a fairytale. Its presence adds an extra touch of magic to Tangkoko National Park – a biodiversity hotspot teeming with life. So next time you find yourself exploring Southeast Asia's stunning landscapes, keep your eyes peeled for these charismatic little acrobats. Who knows? You might just stumble upon one catching forty winks in broad daylight too!
