Meerkats
Captive
EOS30, Sigma 100-300 F4, Provia 100F, Handheld, crop

After a few minutes sentry duty with his trusted friend, our young hero is feeling far from secure in this vulnerable new role. He feels the need to be a little closer to his buddy and cuddles up.

Putting his paws around his friend for moral support he once more resumes his tentative sky watching as his little heart beats a bit faster ....
