First of all, who doesnt like a flirty capuchin? This is an interesting piece, thanks for posting it. One of the things I found fascinating about watching my daughter's development was her path towards understanding a sense of self. It went from no sense of it, to declaring everything "mine" and "smiling" in the mirror in what seemed like over night. Is there any evidence of apes dolling themselves up and using a mirror to see the result? I wonder if they've ever been fond of a particularly still pool of water in the wild, simply for its reflective quality? Interesting stuff.
