RAISING his foot into the air, this cheeky monkey offers an unusual wave. Clearly enjoying his bath, he then starts his morning cleaning routine as he begins tending to his feet. These adorable photographs were captured by Welsh aircraft engineer Phil Morgan, 45, after he took the trip to the Jigokudani Yaen-koen wildlife park, Japan, to photograph the cute Japanese macaque.
