We've mentioned Prairie Dogs several times during our recent blogs, but haven't posted any pictures. The reason is that Prairie Dogs generally live out on the, you guessed it!, prairie. So we generally only see them as we're whizzing past them on the highway at 65 mph! Plus, they are pretty small and quite far from the road. And, when we do stop to try to get a picture, they give a "Bark!" and head into their tunnels.
The wait and suspense is over! This morning on my walk down to the neighborhood Albertson's to get MMG a Denver Post, I passed a vacant lot where lives a colony of Prairie Dogs! Here are some up close and personal shots for you!
Anyone can give you a picture of a Prairie Dog front -- you have to come here to get a picture of a Prairie Dog back!
Guarding his home and warning the colony!
Closer!
In Action!
What's all that barking about?
Family meeting about all that barking....More later, maybe......
