We went and visited the Swift Fox den yesterday morning. The vixen is slowly getting comfortable with us and I was able to get some full-body shots.

My favorite image of the day is of a Thirteen-Lined Ground Squirrel. We photographed it near our camping spot, and it was very cooperative. We spent about half an hour with it as it was feeding.

It was too windy yesterday afternoon and evening to photograph at the Swift Fox den, so we stayed in and got some office work done.
