Groundhogs!

[fadedwings]

A mom and baby groundhog foraging in the backyard. I've seen a total of three young groundhogs, but mostly I just see one at a time.




The young groundhog standing up in the grass and looking so cute.

Ooh, what a great sight to catch! I know we have some in our area but I've only twice adults at a distance. So great to get to see babies 🙂

[fadedwings]

I've been seeing them multiple times a day. I'm lucky to have a porch/balcony type thing that's at a second-floor level and faces the backyard - when I'm up there the animals are less apt to get scared away and it's nice to take photos from up there too :)

What an interesting looking creature, I have never seen one before!!

[fadedwings]

They're pretty common around here. They dig tunnels underground.

Cutie. At work, we describe the babies as "ambulatory baked potatoes" when they first come out. :)

[fadedwings]

That's a very apt description :D

[nellas]

That's so cute!
I've seen a baby groundhog around my house this year too. We've always had them around, but this is the first year I've seen one so young.

[fadedwings]

I haven't seen babies that often either. Other than this year there were babies a few years back. Three or four of them that time.

man i love these lil rodentdogs so much

we have them roughly around where i live, but only in the more sparsely populated areas, and i live in a more suburban area so i don't get to see 'em a whole lot

[fadedwings]

I live in an urban area that's mostly multi-family homes packed close together. So, these are city groundhogs :) I feel pretty lucky to get to see all the wildlife here that I do, really.
