    WOW how cool is that. They can be dangerous so keep your distance. :) Thanks for sharing the pictures.

    That is so cool! I'm surprised that she let you get so close to her babies...

    my dh spotted them when he was leaving to go next door. he called me and said get your camera and get outside. he came barreling back down the drive and away we went. she had moved some. I got out when she was quite a distance aaway and took pics over the hood of the pickup. then they left and I told dh to back up and drive south. lo and behold she came over the hill and worked her way dow to the road and we had turned the pickup off and just sat there. she walked right up to the pickup and then went around to the drivers side and sniffed th ewindshiel. DH could have reached out and petted her neck. she then snorted and left walking down the road with her babies. I made a disc of the pictures and took them to the newspaper office in town and they blew up these for me. they also asked my permission to put them in the paper. sure hope they use color ink. I have an 8 x 10 of these three.
