Nick is a cantankerous old bastard. He spends most of his time getting mad at infants and juveniles for playing too close to whatever he happens to be eating.
While he's the largest male in the group, he's also well past his prime (and knows it), and so has ceded whatever dominance he once had to the younger males.
His favorite thing to do is eat and lie down at the same time (sorry -- no pictures of this splendid behavior).
If he were a movie character, he'd be Clint Eastwood in Gran Torino, only instead of becoming the hero in the end, he'd just fall asleep.
Choosing a favorite monkey from the Green group at this point would be like choosing a favorite child...
...but let's just say he's up there.
Even a cantankerous old bastard can be a sweetheart occasionally.
