From some fox photos I took in 2012 but never posted this one.
This pup was from a litter under a shed in the neighbourhood.
Some people touch your heart, other ones hold it for you... That's the pups... he have the skill to always make me feel that we are in the right place with the right person. I care about this kiddo ♥
Grey Seal Pups born black are fairly rare. Approximately only 1 in every 400 are born this colour as opposed to the usual white so I feel very privileged to have seen one.
Many thanks to everyone that views and comments on my images - very much appreciated.
It seems strange not heading off to the coast to see the seal pups, but sadly this year it isn't to be. Fingers crossed for next year.
Brave scout
After the pups spotted me and vanished into the Willow thicket, I circled around to the other side. Perhaps they came out on that side. No luck with that. Once again I returned to the original spot. Initially there were no pups in sight. Then, after about 10 minutes, this brave pup poked his head out and came into the open. He saw me right away. It was time to give them a rest. I turned walked away.

Herbie enjoying a short rest
Yesterday evening me, Tracey, and Herb had a walk around Towneley park.
Of course Herb did a lot of running about, so here he is having a 10 second speed rest 😀
The day had started off wet, and then became dry but very windy. Not many people were in the park at all… very enjoyable!

Next to last in my young wildlife series is this shot of four Black-tailed Prairie Dog pups on alert atop their burrow mound. If a serious threat had developed, they would have disappeared into the burrow in about one second. But they soon relaxed and returned to grazing on the nice green spring grass.

Fox pup from a den thats on Main str downtown Breckenridge. It always amazes me how many people pass by without noticing the foxes.
Four Timber Wolf pups are roughhousing at the den (the nose and an ear are all that can be seen in one case).
Maryland Pig Services' ex-Conrail SW8 returns light to the property after dropping a single mill gondola for the CSS. This pup's sole task is to ferry gondolas between Maryland Pig Services and the CSS interchange located across from 130th Street. Its extremely sporadic schedule and quick round trip make it a difficult engine to shoot.
There were reports of them which I didn't believe since in the last 25 yrs I have not seen one here. I was proven wrong and saw mom with two young pups. Isle Lake Alberta. Happy Canada Day!

Clambering over sea side rocks I found this pup in the perfect spot. Sea Lions have external ears unlike seals.
They never looked my way at the same time.
Thank you for viewing, faving or commenting on my images, have a great day! (Affinity Pro for editing)
The Spotted hyena (Crocuta crocuta), also known as the laughing hyena, is a hyena species, currently classed as the sole extant member of the genus Crocuta, native to sub-Saharan Africa.
The spotted hyena is a highly successful animal, being the most common large carnivore in Africa. Its success is due in part to its adaptability and opportunism; it is primarily a hunter but may also scavenge, with the capacity to eat and digest skin, bone and other animal waste. In functional terms, the spotted hyena makes the most efficient use of animal matter of all African carnivores. The spotted hyena displays greater plasticity in its hunting and foraging behaviour than other African carnivores; it hunts alone, in small parties of 2-5 individuals or in large groups. During a hunt, spotted hyenas often run through ungulate herds in order to select an individual to attack. Once selected, their prey is chased over a long distance, often several kilometres, at speeds of up to 60 km/h.
This very cute Spotted Hyena pup was sitting close to it mother eating close to their den and was captured on Photography Safari during a late evening game drive in the Maasai Mara National Reserve, Kenya.
An adorable Elephant Seal pup rested on the beach with a group of other pups. I fell in love with those big dark eyes.
On my visit to see the Seals at Ravenscar I took so many shots which sit on a hard drive doing nothing.

Grey Seal - Halichoerus grypus
Every year, and at this time of year, grey seals come ashore at Donna Nook on the Lincolnshire coast to give birth, and to mate. Around 2,000 pups are born here each year.
The total number of pups born this year (2023) was 2,205 with the last pup being born on 21 December.
We saw this Coyote pup along with its sibling (whose ears you can see at left of frame) foraging in the wet morning grasses. It appeared to us that these two were on their own, no mother in sight. Doing a little reading, it is pretty common that Coyote pups will be on their own by August and we are nearly there now.

I've just spent a fun few days in Norfolk watchng these adorable seal pups. This one had to be my favourite though, the face just reminds me of a pug. We were blessed with some great weather, 2 days of cloud and 2 of mostly sunshine with glorious sunrises and sunsets. Here the sun is just starting to sink behind the dunes giving this pup a golden glow!
Just in case you are wondering I was using a really long lens so I didn't disturb the seals and always made sure I didn't cut off their escape route to the sea. This one was taken at 1000mm full frame equivalent.
Looks like a seal pup that's no more than a day or two old. They grow fast, nursing on milk that's 50% fat.

Today's numbers as reported by Lincolnshire Wildlife Trust
1607 pups, 1568 cows and 404 bulls (24/11/2023)
The pups are born at around 14 kg. They are born in autumn (October to November) with a dense, soft silky white fur; at first small, they rapidly fatten up on their mothers' extremely fat-rich milk. The milk can consist of up to 60% fat. Within a month or so they shed the pup fur, grow dense waterproof adult fur, and leave for the sea to learn to fish for themselves
