Weekly Photo Challenge: Twinkle

Mei-Mei

??????????From La Selva Ecolodge, Ecuador.

This agouti has a twinkle in his eye, probably because he was trying to hide in the shadows under the walkway.  Agouti are a genus (Dasyprocta) of large rodents that live in Central and South America.  They are adorable but very shy and I was thrilled to be able to glimpse one on my trip to the lowland rainforest.
