A large colony of Prairie Dogs take up residence in Lake Arrowhead State park in Jolly, Texas. This one was more trusting then I thought he would be, letting me get quite close before running back into his hole.
Print Available. Part of Five A Week. Included in my book, “Finding Place“.
The first reaction I had was – is this a meerkat from the Meerkat Manor show? But then I realized (rather quickly) this is a Prairie Dog. :)
Good photo!
