Even as they are starting to grow up into more mature wild critters, two of Mabel's pups aren't at all alarmed when they see me or the Chihuahua girls. This image filled the frame.

Although there was again COVID news in the US, I didn't feel like listening to or dealing with it today. Today was just Nature photography. Sometimes, stay-at-home isolation (and not paying attention to the outside world) isn't a bad thing...

Although I can tell them apart, I haven't named the groundhog pups. I've only given their mom Missouri Mabel a name. Like the groundhogs we've had before her, Mabel will probably stay around for the rest of her life. The pups, however, will be eventually moving on. As of mid July, three already have.

Image quality was effected by the use of a Bridge Camera with "too high" of ISO for the camera to efficiently handle.
This camera works best in perfect lighting and @ a low ISO.
It is what it is.
