A group of us took off for the weekend, we went beach camping at Shirvan Nature Reserve. The beach is a 2 hour drive south of Baku. I never before would have thought that I would swim in the Caspian, but in the area we had camped the water is protected and (somewhat) clean.
We saw this mama pup on our drive into the park. She had just had a litter of babies and she was absolutely starving. We were able to give her some food and love on our way in and out of the park. At least she had 2 days of food to support her and her babies. I think of her everyday, I wish I could save her... but can't put the healthy kittens at home at risk...

Check out this cool evening sky... the clouds rolling in which was nice because it was so stinkin' hot that day! No rain luckily -- just some nice cloud cover to cool things down.
