This guy and the other foxes I have posted lately are all wild gray foxes. This is Mom's third year coming back to the same den and raising her family.
On our relaxed, early morning country wanderings seeking wildlife to photograph, my full-time spotter sitting in an adjacent seat in our vehicle always laughs whenever I am fortunate to capture an animal or bird that I haven’t been able to before.
She knows what comes next. She is married to an infoholic. New sightings drive me to scour the internet to find out whatever I can about a creature or bird.
On a foggy morning last weekend, we passed an outlet from a smaller lake west of Grandy, MN that tunneled under the county road from one side to the other. There was still open water lined on each side by white ice. I noticed steady movement in the water and figured it was a muskrat but as it clambered up onto the ice, its long flat tail gave away its species.
It was a beaver. There are a lot of beavers in Minnesota so many that between 20-30,000 are harvested each year by hunters and trappers. A century or more ago, the pelts of beavers brought in good money as they were used for hats, coats and other bits of clothing for many of the more wealthy folks. Today, not so much.
The newly born young ones are called kits and are born to a male and female that mate for life with a normal lifespan of 10-12 years. Yearling beavers hang around the family unit and help take care of the next litter when they are born. Although it is common for beavers to have 3-4 offspring in the spring, they can have up to 9 kits that are born after a short 3 month gestation.
Beavers continue to grow their entire lives and older ones can reach 3-4 feet in length, including their tail and rank as our largest rodent and can top out around 60 pounds.
The next time you come face to face with a beaver, thank them for their important contribution to wildlife as through their unique construction projects around waterways they provide a rich environment for other wildlife.

This is my latest kit that I hope to offer in my store soon and I will be adding more decals, specifically faces.
The kit will be the same price as my other kits.

Evening light on the Kit Fox HIlls, Death Valley
This photograph was a bit of a lucky catch. I had gone to an elevated location where I had a more commanding view of a wide section of Death Valley, but late-afternoon clouds had drifted in above the Cottonwood Mountains to the west and the light ranged from filtered to "blah." I try to "read" the clouds to predict what may come, and my reading on the conditions was that a small gap between the bottom of the cloud bank and the top of the mountains would produce a brief bit of good light just before the sun dropped beyond the peaks. These predictions don't always pan out, but this one did. The light first appeared a great distance away at the upper end of the valley, but soon worked its way south across the Grapevine Mountains and then flowed across the low Kit Fox Hills.
I've been intrigued by this small row of furrowed hills for a long time. Their coloration and patterns let them stand out from the less differentiated material of the washes above and below them. I did a bit of reading about them during this recent trip, and I understand that they are a remnant of a very old earthquake fault along the west side of the valley. (There are fault zones along the sides of Death Valley, separating the rising mountains from the valley, which is largely filled with material washed down from the mountains.)

De vierassige motorwagen 11 van Auckland is in 1902 als bouwpakket vanuit Engeland naar Nieuw Zeeland geleverd. Brush Electrical Engineering leverde deze kit set. De werkplaats Ponsonby van het trambedrijf in Auckland assembleerde tussen 1902 en 1912 in totaal 43 van zulke als bouwpakket geleverde trams.
De wagen bleef in gemoderniseerde vorm in dienst tot in 1952. Daarna werd de wagenbak vele jaren gebruikt als klaslokaal in de plaatselijke dierentuin. De rijvaardig gerestaureerde tram wordt tegenwoordig af en toe ingezet op de Western Springs Museumtramlijn in Auckland.
Museaal bewaarde trams in alle soorten en maten vindt u in het album museumtrams

Fox kits playing by the side of the woods at Edgar Evins State Park. Third year in a row that the foxes have used the same den site for raising their young.
This little boy was rescued while swimming in the flood waters in Baton Rouge. A rescue boat plucked him out of the water! Because he is such a strong swimmer we named him Phelps. He is extremely affectionate though the photo says otherwise

"vive PHOTOSHOP" parce que cette photo était, à la base, super sombre et même un peu floue... ratée quoi...
In my walk yesterday, I saw an adult cross fox dive into a hole that looked like a den. I watched for an hour or so only to see the head peek up and disappear the moment I moved my camera.
So today I went to the same spot and found a single kit. This little one came up and sniffed my shoe at one point. This shot is just after he sniffed my shoe.

An Airfix style kit model of the Titanic. With Airfix kits the parts of an aeroplane, ship or vehicle could be snapped from their moulding frame and glued together to make a scale model. This kit is cast in metal and I am looking upwards to catch its full, impressive length.
