Somehow cat piles of 6 just aren't that big looking to me anymore. Most of these cats sleep with me at night too.

Our neighbourhood foxes recently moved with their 6 cubs to a den just a few houses away from ours. Mum was napping in the sun for maybe 45 seconds before the cubs woke up and nap-time was over. She’s so patient with them despite being constantly active; hunting to keep them fed, cleaning them and just generally keeping an eye on their shenanigans.
I’d completely lost my photography mojo until these guys showed up.

Standing only 20 feet away, an Arctic Fox laid down, yawned and took a nap. Not wanting to disturb it's naptime, the photographer took a few photos and walked away. Have been in Deadhorse working for 7 years, this is the first time in those years that the Arctic Foxes have stayed around the photographer. Usually, the photos are of one passing through. Last summer, one started hanging around the pad and would see it often. Perhaps, the kits that are running around now are the offspring of those seen last summer.

The lady beetle was having a nice afternoon nap until I came along poking my big obtrusive lens into her secret napping spot. She came out, said hello, and returned to her burrow and nap.
The lady beetle is an Asian, 7-spotted (C7) beetle (Coccinella septempunctata). The floral host is the umbel of Queen Anne's lace (Daucus carota).
I caught this one napping on the tree in front of the deck today, probably trying to stay out of the wind, it feels like January out there, windy and very cold!
Mother and baby loon. Baby is getting a bit large for climbing on mother's back. I watched him grow over the week while I was on vacation at the lake in Minnesota. By the end of the week he was diving underwater and coming up twenty feet away from his sibling. And his mother seemed a little nervous about keeping them together.
"Loons build their nests close to the water, preferring sites that are completely surrounded by water. They may use the same site from year to year. Loons will use a variety of materials found nearby to build their nests including pine tree needles, leaves, grass, moss, and sometimes clumps of mud. Both the male and female help with nest building and incubation, which usually lasts 26–31 days. If the eggs are lost, the pair may re-nest, often in the same general location.
Usually one or two eggs are laid in June. Loon chicks are precocial, able to swim right away, but are often seen riding on their parents' back. This behavior allows the chicks to rest, conserve heat, and avoid predators such as large carnivorous fish, snapping turtles, gulls, eagles, and crows. After a day or two, chicks cease returning to the nest but remain in their parents' company.
Chicks remain with and are fed exclusively by their parents for about eight weeks. After eight weeks, chicks will begin to dive for some of their own food. By 11 or 12 weeks of age, chicks are able to gather almost all of their own food and may be able to fly.
A pair may mate for life, although banding studies have shown that loons will sometimes switch mates after a failed nesting attempt and even between nesting attempts in the same season.[3] Male loons appear more faithful to breeding territories than to mates.[4]"
The beautiful Raine (Twin sister of the equally beautiful First Girl Romance) takes some well deserved rest time to take a nice long nap in the mysterious Dome.
A nap reduces the risk of heart disease. Did you know those who take a midday siesta at least three times a week are 37 percent less likely to die of heart disease?
72/365 … kinda an image for a Sunday afternoon … our cat, Hamish, finding another 5 minutes for a nap on the stairs … always helped by a bit of gentle light?? :-) xx
Australian Hobby (Falco longipennis)
This Hobby has become an almost permanent resident of the Powell Drive Park over the last week. This morning it was having a nap. By the looks of the distended crop it had eaten a fine breakfast.
