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!!
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.

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!

Sitting and watching the photographer, a fox kit enjoys a warm summer day. This kit was probably born in April, so it is about 3 months old. Summer is short and in another month, this kit will be full grown and out hunting on its own.
I always thought children grew up to fast, and we have them in our care for between 15 and 20 years. A fox kit is born and on its own in less than 4 months.
This little fella lived in a den right near a pond. This was taken early in the summer and the fox kits still were not out much. On this day, they would play for a while, then run back to the den if the wind blew or a duck or gull made a noise. There were feathers all over the bank of the pond, remnants of meals past. The kit was fascinated by, yet not sure of the photographer.

Two Fox Kits wrestling on the grassy tundra can make a person laugh. Sometimes, the Kits can be so funny that you just have to put the camera down and simply enjoy the moment. The Kits are just like human children, picking at each other and wrestling, jumping someone when not looking. Their first summer on this green earth is nothing but playing, resting, eating and repeat.
Still plenty of Pine Marten images to go! I'll take a break with some other species at some point ;)
Kit Fox Aircraft popular home built airplane not sure which model this one is. Small two seat and a sharp looking airplane found in North Carolina.
This fuzzy little bundle of baby fox was curious about me. I was very fortunate that he was and I got a couple shots before they vanished. Mom's tail was wagging by his face. :)
There were four fox kits playing outside the den...these two were too tired to continue...Kawartha Lakes, Ontario, Canada
Symmetry - A couple endangered San Joaquin Kit Fox kits align perfectly during the twilight hour.
Was a longtime goal of mine to photograph this species and I was thrilled to do so thanks to the help of some friends, a ton of patience, and a very specialized low light camera.
