The entrance to the den is behind the Red Pine tree. One of their siblings is poking his head out. Northern Wisconsin
I traveled all the way from Florida to California in a failed attempt to photograph Bobcats. We, of course, have them in Florida. Recently, a family of Bobcats has taken up residence at a local wildlife refuge, and as such, is more tolerant of humans than would otherwise be the case. I only had a few days to try to get some images any only got lucky twice on several attempts. This one's my favorite.
Walking along the tundra in late July, an Arctic Fox kit licks its lips. There was an old shack that offered shade from the relentless summer sun and shortly after this photo was taken, the fox kit laid down for a nice nap.
Visited this fox den often, and the kits were used to my presence. I sure do miss seeing them.
Looking for Help
Mom and three kits were caught on camera almost every night in our backyard. Mom and one of her kits stopped showing up. Concerned for the two little ones left behind (and visible on camera) I called the Fish and Wildlife Dept. When I told them mom and one kit had been gone for two weeks, I was told mom was probably NOT coming back, that she was either dead or trapped. After speaking to them we decided to let nature take it's course. Eventually, they would leave on their own.
Well, I am really relieved to say after over 3 weeks mom and the other kit are back with the two left behind. The three little ones were rolling around in the yard as if they were happy to see each other...and all four walking the fence line with mom in the lead! (Now I can sleep better!)
I appreciate your visit and so grateful for your comments/faves!
Stay safe and healthy!!
Red Fox kit
This Kit and several other Kits had been hanging out in a dirt pile in my back yard and this part was cool, I got to take photos of them while I was sitting in the house!

Thanks for your views, comments and Faves of this image! I greatly appreciate them!!
At a hide near to Blairgowrie in Perthshire, I was waiting excitedly for pine martens to appear, but I was overjoyed when they brought along their kit. The whole experience a joyful one, especially as it was my 65th birthday.
