Night Games

These guys seem to be having a blast. I was reminded of dance recitals that we attended in years past. This den is exposed and would have made a great site for photography except virtually all activity has been at night.

Butterfly Battles

Several species of butterflies were jockeying for position on this fox scat a few weeks ago. It was a quiet morning and after laying down near the scat for a few minutes the butterflies became very active and tolerant of the camera. This footage was taken on the same day as the previous still images.

Fox Kits

This pair of fox kits are the youngest I have seen. They seem to have trouble walking. The two personalities were apparent with one being extremely curious and the other just waiting for food. More video from this location is unlikely since the den is so well hidden any regular filming would surely affect the kits. Hopefully a more exposed den will show activity. The best den for viewing is no longer active although I did get some footage of a vulture feeding on the carcass of its former resident; the cycle of life.
