One of two images--I've been seeing a lot of deer, rabbits, & groundhogs lately! I've seen a groundhog with one pup, but June 19, 2026 in Frear Park (Troy, New York, USA) was the first time I saw one with three pups! Nice to see them grazing together! Did you know that groundhogs are in the Squirrel family? Here is a photo of one of the pups.
One of the few highlights of 2020, this seal pup was literally posing for us. I wanted to share this kind of experience with my wife, and one of the reward to do so, was to see her face glowing at the sight of this beautiful creature. A moment that made 2020 more bearable.
Now the births & mating has finished, things are a lot calmer & more laid back at Horsey seal colony, with the seals back huddled together in large groups.
Over 1400 pups were born this year & all have now shed their white fur & can go to sea to catch fish for themselves.
The pup in the photo is about 6-7 weeks old.
All four of North Shore's "Pups", GE steeplecabs, are at the Pettibone yard enginehouse in North Chicago, 2/12/62. They got the nickname when the first ones were delivered, being called "Big Puppies". They were larger than the 2 original steeple cabs that had been purchased by the Chicago & Milwaukee Electric predecessor. Photo by Ed DeRouin, from my collection.
the face of this silver fox vixen really says " give me a break" but her pups won't do her that favor...
This newborn pup was only a day or two old, and its white "lanugo" baby fur, was still stained by the afterbirth. Photographed at Donna Nook, Lincolnshire

Sorry for those who commented on the original image - I made the image public before I realized I needed to make the 4 images square!
Just having some fun with Cola and MS Photodraw! Lost some of the clarity but I'll have to work on that!
I changed the title thanks to getthebubbles!
Today I saw the first pup! It spent most of its time on the back side of the rock, but after its mom went in it started bawling and humped its way over the top. After several false starts it finally made it into the water to join its mom.

KXHR train 102 crosses the Holston River just outside of Asbury TN, on a cloudy spring day. Once they reach Asbury, the train will shove back into the industrial park.

Ohau Stream
New Zealand
This is a shot I wanted to try before I got to Ohau. It's a seal pup at the base of the waterfall taken at high iso with a short exposure combined with a long exposure with a CPL for the rest of the scene. If you've been there, you know that there are many pups constantly splashing in the background and it's pretty dark in there! The polariser made the scene appear nicer overall but really limited the ability to take action shots because of the higher iso needed. Charlotte also became more interested in my tripod than the seals after a while, so we ended up just watching rather than photographing
Halichoerus grypus
Donna Nook on the Lincolnshire coast
Two pups from different mothers, (Cows only have one pup each year whilst fertile). Over a week old at this stage and quickly fattening up on mother's fat rich milk and now getting more adventurous.
Grey seal pups weigh about 14 kg at birth and have soft white fur. They remain on land where they suck from their mother for 18-21 days. A female’s milk contains up to 60% fat, so pups grow very quickly, gaining about 2 kg in weight each day. This weight gain consists mainly of a layer of blubber below their skin, which is vital insulation when they go to sea.
Pups stay on land until they have lost their white coats and trebled their body weight.
Grey seal pups are very vocal. Their cries sometimes sound like a human baby crying. This is normal behavior that helps mothers find their pups on crowded beaches . The cows do not feed while nursing pups.
This day's (24/11/2023) numbers, as reported by Lincolnshire Wildlife Trust ,
1607 pups, 1568 cows and 404 bulls
Haven't posted any pup pics in a while..............Brax likes to lay on the stairs, right in the way. How she can find this remotely comfortable I'll never know.
A wild Common Seal pup at Donna Nook, Lincolnshire, 2009. This chap (or chapess!) gave me a couple of shots which had I returned with nothing else would have made my day. This is my favourite, I like the definition of its whiskers against the white puppy coat.
