How adorable! Great capture Jamie!
Thank you! One of the other photographers had a better spot than me took a lot more photos, and if you played them fast enough you could see the babies feet kicking.
This is such a funny picture!! Please consider adding this spotting to the Animal Architecture mission at http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/8082378
