Porcupine in the Brush

 
 

Nikon D810, 200-500mm @ f5.6 1/250th sec, 2500 iso

On the first evening our my Alaska and Yukon road trip we were looking for a suitable sunset location to shoot just outside Haines Junction.  I heard a rustling in the bush and spotted this Porcupine scurrying around and eating the little saplings.  It was very obliging and seemed uninterested in us allowing for a nice close portrait shot.
