That principle of reciprocal favors

Got a male puppy 2 years ago. His offspring is totally adorable. Just look at this magnificent coat.

It's always a treat when you catch up to a family of red fox, and they for the most ignore you. I got the witness their play and tender moments.

Interesting factiod from the Montana Field Guide app - The den sites can have as many 10-40 sub-dens...that's a whole lot of digging.

Got a couple pictures of this river puppy in Texas this morning.

Meeting point thistle bloom: a Map Butterfly and a Meadow Brown sit side by side, showing just how different their patterns are. One in brown-white-orange, the other in muted tones, but with a striking eyespot.
