The Boss is sleeping - Marredpally Macaques - 2

The other day the troop of about 15 monkeys arrived at about 2 pm and stayed on for exactly two hours. It was clearly siesta time, because almost all of them, located at different positions in the vicinity spent most of the time napping.
This guy, the biggest and the most aggressive of the troop, behaved and was treated like the leader. He took his position on the chickoo (sapota) tree right in front of our balcony and 'slept'. He didn't move till it was about 4 pm and when he did, the entire troop took off immediately after him.



Tomorrow: The boss is sleeping; so shall we!
