The gibbon (the fourth closest relative of man, after chimpanzees, gorillas
and orangutans, and also an ape) is known as the acrobat of the canopy.
Here is one sequence of a female Bornean Gibbon strutting her stuff. She
was way up above our heads, and these photos are very heavily cropped, even
though I was using a lens focal length equivalent of 630mm, but the photos
do give an idea of how effortlessly they move around the canopy.

Comments and criticism, as ever, welcome!
