Monkey-mania at Tamarind

The Bajan Green Monkey can be a cheeky little fellow and yesterday his antics at the Tamarind Hotel cultural extravaganza endeared him to several visitors.  

The pretend primate pranced and hopped around while getting up to mischief, like giving little Ellen McKay a little scare.

However, he and the McKay family soon became good friends by the end of the evening.
