We were very lucky to find mum with two very young cubs early one morning. Unfortunately it was a very short sighting and the grass got in the way. We never found them again but are sure they are OK just keeping out of sight

Great framing n wonderful pose, may crop some canvas off the bottom.
I don't mind the OOF grasses but the small blade crossing the eye.

Ken: like that the little guy is letting you know who's the boss. The grasses are a non-issue. Richard

What a great pose by this little guy.  The bits of OOF grass provide some nice framing.  Lucky the grass allowed for a sharp focus.  Nice.

I like this for its warm light and the tunnel of grass framing, but I do agree that the stem crossing the eye is unfortunate.
