Great image Chas!
Looks like he got caught with his hand in the cookie jar.
Cool to see the little one learning to take care of itself with the guidance of the adult.

Nice interaction shot which just seems to need a little boost of the rather flat colouration to bring it to life. 8) 8) :)

E.J., thanks for commenting.

It is difficult to discern, but what you are referring to is not a catch-light at all, but the whites of its eye, as it looks at me sideways.

Best,

Chas, the interaction and expressions are priceless. That cub looks almost afraid that you might be thinking of having that fish for lunch. The water dripping from Mom's nose and paw are a bonus.
