Just a simple prairie dog doing his prairie dog thing in the Badlands of South Dakota. These guys always look like they’re about to start dancing. Nikon D800 with Nikkor 200-400mm lens (at 360mm) ISO 400, f/4 at 1/1600 of a second
great pic. these guy can be pain in the neck some time, when they wake -up in the spring time they eat ever thing in sight.? it depends on what you planted. for the year they like crops etc. )
I love this photo, Sean. Often, Prairie Dogs appear in a sea of dried grasses, rather than the green hued flora in your image. What a perky little doggie you captured!

Yes, I always try to get as low as I can, preferably on the ground.
Similar to the groundhog in Caddyshack! “I’m all right, nobody worry about me.”
Prairie dog=click bait.
No doubt. Cute little guy for rodents.
Oh I like this one.

Yes, I was there in the springtime when the rolling plains look their best.
