Enormous round eyes are set close together in a flat face. Tarsiers' legs are specialized for climbing and jumping and end in long, thin digits bearing adhesive pads.

Hi Jes.. is this a bushbaby? or is there a more official name? a note with a few animal details would be appreciated for us learning. :-) The huge eyes are nicely shown. I find the reflection in the eyes a bit distracting. Nicely done. Thanks for sharing.
