This was a great sighting of the lower deck. I could see both groundhogs at the same time. The female (left) had jumped out of the hole on the right side, and jumped over to the other hole, turned around, and poked her head out. Fred then appeared in the hole.

They were digging out under the Hydrangea. Burrow #5. You can see the dirt flying.

This camera is on its last legs! Still, it captured their run.Fred Apr 27 from Jennifer Jilks on Vimeo.
It is a busy yard. They've been wrestling on the deck! The Wingscapes camera was on the lowest step. I think this is bonding behaviour. I wonder if we'll have little Freds?!Fred groundhog wrestling from Jennifer Jilks on Vimeo.
Ah ha! And what would the little ones be called? Fredlets? Can't wait to see! They are still wild animals, but so interesting that they like being close to your house.
ReplyDeleteYou could put together a Fred documentary. ;-)
ReplyDeleteI hope you don't lose Cinnamon down the groundhog hole! It's fun to see two of them (so long as they aren't digging too much under your house!)
ReplyDeleteThose are some healthy groundhogs! They must have plenty to snack on :)
ReplyDeleteThey are getting long well. I think you can expect more freds.
ReplyDeleteI'm enjoying your reports on Fred!
