These were taken in Great Falls, Virginia and seem to be the first time the kits have ever ventured outside their den. There has been a camera here for about 2 weeks, but yesterday, the babies came out to enjoy some good weather.
The date/time stamp was set wrong (my fault, sorry fellow blog readers), but I can assure you that these were taken yesterday, April 27th, 2014.
These kits are red foxes but they don't look resemble their parents completely. Through the next weeks and months, their fur will become more orange, their bodies will fill out, and the entire animal will become an efficient machine that excels at catching mice and voles.
These ones are no bigger around the size of my shoe (size 10 in case you were wondering).
Another camera was put up in the opposing direction of the den to get more photos.
