Aw, isn’t she cute! She took up living in my backyard. I watched her all day as she burrowed in to the soil and then carried grass to the burrow and covered it to hide it. I attempted a few times to get a shot, this one worked.
She had to get used to me, or at least figure out I was going to keep my distance — or that my telephoto was sufficient to get her portrait and still keep my distance.
I don’t know where is the back door to her hutch. I don’t know if she’s using that and not this door. Or if she’s moved on, but I’ve not seen her for quite a while. So, I just mow right over the hole in the ground, careful not to disturb it.
