Pond life

A much quieter evening today, but I did manage to get to see some interesting behaviour.

The cubs have already learnt to cache (bury) food, though I do wonder whether it will still be there when they get back to it. They also lick at bark and low branches, presumably to pick bugs and insect off them. That's a major part of their diet and I deliberately didn't put any food out for them as they need to learn to fend for themselves.

Tonight's blog picture is one of the cubs taking a drink from the garden pond.

And over on the Fox (Cub) of the Day, the picture for Saturday is a great close-up.
