Where's Engelbert? (Online Edition)

The rules of Where's Engelbert? are as follows;

Look at the attached photos.
In each photo featured a monkey is located therein.
On discovery of the cheeky blighter, you must proclaim in a loud voice "There's Engelbert!"
Sounds simple, however this particular primate has used the spectacular scenery of Val T, and, dare I say some amazingly good looking models to distract you from locating him!! So you may need to be on top of your game to find him.

Happy hunting!!!
