Last day in the enclosure.July 23rd.


On this day July 23rd. Little porcupine graduated with mom to the tree. And after some playtime,she fell asleep near mom. After the initial release were mom guarded baby outside the den. Mom found her tree to sleep in within the enclosure. Always same tree ,same branch. Coming down to feed and be with babe. It was the perfect release. Everything going just the way it was suppose to. 



 I was surprised upon my arrival this day to find both mom and babe awake with babe playing in the trees. I kept my distance as not to disturb them. Using my 150 - 500 lens through a clear spot in the trees and cropping.


 When they both settled in I noticed baby was copying its momma with both right front legs hanging                                          loose in total comfort. Like mother like babe. So cute.




                                     Mom just chillin out in the heat on her favorite branch.


                                        Look at those tiny feet just a hangin on. So amazing.
       A total look of content. Mom looks like she is smiling. She is free. And thanks to TWC very                                                                                  healthy.
