This is one of the youngsters. This one is very sweet. This is another one of those shots that is not what it looks like. She appears to be pulling back an away from us. Actually, she is doing something that I think is very cute to watch. I've tried to describe it many times and have always wanted to get a picture, but the picture doesn't capture the action. For this I need video. Anyhow, she is actually sort of squatting in one spot and then reaching forward to gather food and eat it. Normally, they are looking down at the food for this, but she looked up at the camera when the flashes went off. Seen in motion, this is an adorable move. I love the way they sit back slightly and reach forward with arms out straight to sweep the food towards them. They remind me of a poker player grabbing the pot.
