It really wasn’t much of a day for me or the pups I suppose.
It started with carting all my equipment to the new den. A good 15minutes walk up the mountain, which I had to do several times to get all my gear there. That was my workout for the day.
I spent my morning freezing on my very uncomfortable rock until the sun eventually reached me around 9am. For the rest of the day I sat on my rock waiting. I could hear the pups in the den but didn’t see them all day.
The adults came round a couple of times, barked at me and left.
The sun had set and the light at it’s limit. As I packed up. Mom arrived and called. The pups were frantic to get to her as her calls became more and more intense. Eventually they appeared but then couldn’t get to her. They didn’t know their way around the new den with all its cracks and crevices. Mom was just there but how to get to her?
Eventually they found a way round. By now there just wasn’t enough light to film and I packed it in.
And not even a photo did I shoot today!
