p.1 #1 · It’s Pups time for Canidae - Swift Fox and Cayote
Congratulations to shibutg for winning Feature Thread of the Week with 3 votes - View Previous Winners
This late spring (last weekend) I got an opportunity to photograph Swift Fox pups in few mornings, this was a bucket list item for the last few years. The morning-light change was very drastic, so I got to the location before 5:30 AM. These pups were very playful early in the morning, the activity diminished quite a bit as the light got stronger and they took shelter in the den and surroundings. I’m not sure how many were in the litter, currently there are four, all looks healthy to me!
Also, have few Cayote pictures near a den in the mountains, there were 9 pups in the Cayote family, and the adults were constantly going out for hunting voles to feed the pups, one morning one of the adults came near the lake where I was standing, otherwise all the sightings were quite far.
Thanks for checking, Comments and Suggestions appreciated.
