I finally got an interesting image of all five of the Swift Fox (Vulpes velox) kits at the den where we had been photographing in the Pawnee National Grassland. The kits go through a stage where they discover that keeping their mouths open makes intimidating and biting their siblings a lot easier, and the most mature of the kits was just entering that phase on my last morning at the den. I had a great time photographing the foxes at that den for about two weeks and I was sad to say goodbye to them.
