PYGMY MARMOSET

small powderpuff with
thread fingers, peppercorn eyes:
so hugely alive

Paul and I took boys to the zoo on Saturday. Perfect weather for it: overcast but not gloomy, cool but not cold. The animals were livelier than usual. We avoided the large cats and the large primates, whose captivity always make us feel sad, but there was still plenty to see: small animals, amphibians, reptiles and domestic (petting zoo) animals. The little marmosets were particularly enchanting!
