Cute encounter

This year's groundhog babies are adorable! There are about five of them, and they are too cute to be true. Some of them are quite bold (and getting bolder by the day). Here's a close encounter between the two of us, with the groundhog getting hi on its legs, arching its back and doing a soft 'grrr'. I don't know if it would do it any good if I were a predator....I just want to cuddle it and I'm guessing that's not the purpose of this whole display...
