Groundhog Punxsutawney Phil pictured as he makes his prediction on how long winter will last during the Groundhog Day Festivities, at Gobbler's Knob in Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania on Feb. 2, 2024.

Phil’s human handlers took the occasion of Mother’s Day, Sunday, May 12, 2024, to announce that the two kids born earlier this spring to Phil and his partner, Phyllis, are named Sunny and Shadow.

Following Groundhog Day in 2024, Phil and his wife Phyllis became parents with two groundhog pups, Sunny and Shadow. It was the first time the Seer of Seers had children.
