Catmendo Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 I decided to add a little humour to this scene that I shot yesterday. There were two grounhogs foraging about in the late afternoon sun. I have to assume that they were a couple, one being male and the other female. I fired off a few frames as they went about their task of munching on some dandelions and other vegetation. Without being provoked, the one shown here sat up on "her" haunches and let out a chirpy sound of sorts. The other groundhog who I'm calling "Hubert" the little wimpy-hen-pecked male depicted at the bottom. If there was a caption here here it would go something like this. First the little female stands on her hind legs searching for the little wimp "Hubert"! In this next scene, the look on her face says it all when she spots "Hubert" and then bellows out his name, "Huuuuberrrrt"! ...and finally here's little "Hubert" as he thinks to himself, "uh-oh" I've been made! Hey guys, this was solely intended to give you a little chuckle, Lord knows we can all use one now and then! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishinchicks Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 Nice story and photos! With the grassy/dandelion stains around Huberts mouth, maybe she is yelling at him to use some manners, or to quit making such a "hog" out of himself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you Mike for pointing that out! Ok it's still funny you should have spotted that, I was thinking along those very same lines!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birdsong Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 I noticed them, too, and wondered if they were intoxicating to groundhogs. Could explain the reaction from the Mrs. Very cute, nice photos, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MN Shutterbug Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 Thanks for the chuckle. It's nice to see something a little different, and a little humor never hurts.BTW, fishinchicks is Carolyn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishinchicks Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 Ha! I haven't been on this site since I replied earlier today, so I didn't even catch the mixup. We are busy getting ready for my oldest daughter's graduation open house coming up on Saturday. She actually graduated last Friday, but she wanted to attend most of her friend's receptions, so we are holding off for a week. Time spent on the internet will be short until late Sunday when the relatives all head back home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
