on our first day in Chilean Patagonia we reached Torres del Paine NP right before sunset
We were delighted when our guide spotted a female Puma with her 2 cubs descending a hill to reach a waterhole in a valley.
This image shows the 2 cubs looking at their mother

Torres del Paine. Au lieu de la neige, on a eu droit à la savane africaine. Pas tout à fait la même ambiance mais bon. On a fait avec. Le puma porte bien ici son nom de lion des montagnes. No snow at all. Despite that, what a fulfilling experience it has been.
Early morning sighting @ Torres Del Paine NP, Chile
I take pictures because I like it, not because I am good at it.

a herd of Guanaco's has detected a female Puma among the low vegetation on a hill. Instead of running they are intensely watching the cat
Guanaco's are the main prey species of Pumas in Torres del Paine National Park, Patagonia, Chile
With sentinels placed on hill tops Guanaco herds have a very efficient defense system during the daytime.
We have observed several times that with their excellent eyesight these sentinels are able to detect movement several hundred meters away. Often it are Puma cubs that break cover for an instant which makes daytime hunting very difficult for puma mothers.
The sound of the Guanaco alarm calls carries quite far.

Mit einer Schulterhöhe von bis zu 90 cm und einem Gewicht von 100 kg gehört der Puma zu den größten Raubkatzen der Welt. Trotzdem zählt er wissenschaftlich nicht zu den Großkatzen, sondern zu den Kleinkatzen. Sein nächster Verwandter ist der Jaguarundi, auch Wieselkatze genannt.
Im Gegensatz zu Großkatzen wie Löwe, Tiger, Leopard und Jaguar kann der Puma nicht brüllen. Stattdessen produziert er oft schreiartige Laute.
With a shoulder height of up to 90 cm and a weight of 100 kg, the Puma is one of the largest predatory cats in the world. Nevertheless, he is not scientifically one of the big cats, but one of the small cats. His next relative is the Jaguarundi, also called weasel cat.
Unlike big cats such as lion, tiger, leopard and jaguar, the puma cannot roar. Instead, he often produces scream-like sounds.
Puma is a genus in the family Felidae whose only extant species is the cougar also known as the puma, mountain lion, and panther, among other names. Pumas are large, secretive cats. They are also commonly known as cougars and mountain lions, and are able to reach larger sizes than some other "big" cat individuals. Despite their large size, they are more closely related to smaller feline species than to lions or leopards. The two subspecies of pumas have similar characteristics but tend to vary in color and size. Pumas are the most adaptable felines in the Americas and are found in a variety of different habitats, unlike other cat species. Here a mother and one of her "big cubs" (there were two), peacefully enjoying their habitat in Torres del Paine, Chile.
Wishing everyone a Peaceful Travel Tuesday!

Five year old female puma (puma concolor), "Escarcha" (aka Frost), named for her distinctive silver grey color. She is a very confident puma that is normally calm when being observed. However as the mother of two very young kittens, she mostly kept a fair distance away from us. Her passing this close to us was a real treat.

On my last day in the Torres del Paine National Park Chile, I managed to capture this young female Puma.
This is one of a pair of Pumas that guard the entrance to the new Museum of Natural History at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Michigan.
Originally, they were made in 1940, composed of terrazzo painted black, and installed on either side of the entrance to the original museum. After 60 years the statues became quite worn, so molds were made from the originals, and new statues were cast in bronze in 2007. The originals were restored and placed in storage.
The Michigan-born sculptor, Carelton Watson Angell (1887-1962), was the Museum Artist, and worked at U of M for 30 years.

We watched as the puma kitten ran up the mountain right by where we were standing to get to her mamma who was calling her from above.

It inhabits North, Central and South America, making it the most widely distributed wild, terrestrial mammal in the Western Hemisphere, and one of the most widespread in the world. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cougar

Have a great Tuesday Y'all..:)
I gave a talk about Patagonia yesterday evening which made me search through my old files for images. This was a shot of two Pumas silhouetted against a red sunrise but I had initially dismissed it as too grainy. But I reprocessed it using Topaz software and it made a dramatic image to finish on, even though it was sunrise, not sunset. It was taken in the Torres del Paine national park in southern Chile where Pumas (aka Cougars or Mountain Lions) are not uncommon and relatively easy to see. They are most active at dusk and dawn so we used to set out before dawn to reach the best areas when it was light enough to see. This was an opportunistic sighting en route to the best areas. One Puma is obvious but the left hand Puma could be mistaken for rocks. And if you want to know what they look like in daylight here's one: www.flickr.com/photos/timmelling/30268381566/in/photolist
