The Grassy Knoll

I went out early in the morning to see what I could find. After watching the fox kits play for a few hours I wandered over towards the water and found this adorable Groundhog looking for breakfast. If you look closely you can see the dew on his fur and whiskers. He completely ignored me and went happily on his way. It was a fun encounter, I haven’t seen one since I was a kid. We used to drive by train tracks in town and the grass in front used to be covered with holes and it was fun counting how many we could see sticking their heads up out of the holes as we drove by. Seeing kne this close was fantastic.
