Marmots fighting in the mountains

One of the most interesting and funny animals that can be found at the Grossglockner are the Marmots and I am happy to visit them every year at least once. Last year in summer I really had a lot of luck taking hundreds of pictures of them fighting, eating, sleeping and relaxing. But I think the fighting pictures where the most interesting ones. Since they are the only ones with a little bit of ation in it. In the morning I also had a lot of luck with the light. The sun was already very high up in the sky but there where some clouds, so I had the luck with this perfect light situation.

I was lying down in the short meaddow on the mountain and watched them for a longer period of time while I took a lot of pictures of their action. The late morning is probably one of their favorite time for action since they sleep a lot they have long time where they only sleep or relax in the sun and then It is not so exciting to take some pictures of them. The most exicting pictures are the ones that show a little action, at least this is my opinion.
