And now you know what the spikes on an alligator's back are for. They're baby beds! 😉

Taken with a zoom lens from a safe (and respectful) distance.

American Alligator with baby, photographed yesterday (by me).

Earlier this Summer a fox cub (Vulpes vulpes) used to visit our garden around daybreak. Having seen it through the window several times, I got up early one morning, opened the back door, and waited with my camera. It was half way down the garden before it spotted me. It came a bit closer to have a look, but then lost its nerve and ran off. So sweet!

Being able to draw these beautiful animals is a privilege 🐾

Three years ago today - not the rarest display I've witnessed, but one of the prettiest. Ice crystals scattering light.
