Wonderful shot, Joshua. It is now one of my all time favorite wildlife photos. How did you ever manage to catch this?
Thank you very much, Peter! By being patient and ready when the kits appeared from the den. The distance was more than I was hoping for. I had my TC on my lens and still I had to crop quite a bit to get decent images. I will go out there again in a few days after the rain storm has moved to the East.

At Big Meadows, Shenandoah National Park, Virginia.
Some quick snaps with 7Artisans 75mm/1.25 (have posted the door shot in color before). The front lens was constantly a bit wet from rain and wind. Not sure if that is what caused the "light beams" effect or if the lens always do it. Anyway, in some ways I like it and I have the CV 40/1.2 for when I don't want it.
Visited my wife's family last week in Vancouver. Much quieter trip then we expected. Thankfully work is recommending we all work from home the next couple of weeks
