The Philippine Tarsier is a tiny animal, measuring about 4 to 6 inches (15 cm) in height. The small size makes it difficult to spot.

    He is the sweetest little thing! And what huge eyes he has - I’m guess he’s nocturnal?

    I want to bring him home! Such sweetness!

    But my wife would kill me. And justifiably so.

    Consequently, I’ll console myself by patting our sleeping dog.

    My WW is up as well. Hope you’ll pop by and say hi.

    Makes me want to cuddle.

    those eyes remind me of an old wooden owl that my daddy would place in the cherry trees that he hoped would scare away the crows.

    So cute! I’ve only seen a tarsier once, and only in a zoo. This is the first time I’ve seen one up close. Nice shot!

    My WW entry is here.

    I’ve seen this on one of my trekking trips! It is incredibly small and delicate, not to mention adorable.
