    Anyone else sometimes feel like that's the game we're playing? 😃 There are so many of the little things!

    They do seem like a very successful group. I wondering why North America doesn't have a mini-deer (outside of the Keys)?

    I definitely do see a lot of duikers... and yet if you had asked me six months ago what a "duiker" was, I couldn't have told you!

    I have a little trouble telling the red from the grey, especially in the low light or nocturnal videos. I think I've caught on that the greys have a longer, skinnier tail and it seems to never stop moving. The reds have a dorsal stripe and their tail seems shorter, bushier and black.

    In the keyword list thread, it was mentioned that small grey duikers flap their tails vertically, while the other types flap in different directions. That tip helps a lot when the light is too poor to see coloration.
