A Day in the Sun

When you've been couped-up all winter in a hut made out of cattails and mud it's great to get out of the house, swim the kinks out in the warming water, let the sun warm your fur and munch on some recently thawed cattail roots. Who needs Spring Break in Florida when you've got Spring Break-UP on a Fox Island Pond.

"All I want is a little privacy and the paparazzi is in my face!"
