Red Wolf Pups
You’ve no doubt heard that on April 28 our female red wolf gave birth to pups. We now have four new additions to our red wolf enclosure. The pups are becoming more agile, and bold, as each day passes. The entire family was briefly out in front of their den when the photos presented here were taken on a damp and rainy 23 May. Enjoy!Read more

That could change at any time, but for now, I’m going to enjoy the mild fifty, sixty, and yes, even seventy degree weather. The bird feeders have seen steady, but not heavy, use. The local chickadees, titmice, cardinals, nuthatches, and others have been regular customers at the feeders at Bird Viewing, but I’ve not seen anyRead more
