Some days it's just so hard to wake up!

Those are great catches of behaviour, Bill. 2 looks a little soft, but the pose is marvelous.

Ha! That's excellent!

Sweet! I love that stretch in #2. Looks like he's getting a few kinks out of his back.

Too funny. Great capture!

#2 is a great example of the yoga pose "Down-facing Dog"!

This is really great! I think Frank is going to start thinking you're stalking him :biggrin:

CAZ, his years should be between his front legs for the pose to be perfect :wink:

Those are excellent! Even though it's a little soft, I like #2 the best. It always feels good to have a nice stretch first thing in the a.m. to get the kinks out of the back. Nice work out there in the cold :smile:

Your amassing a great series on the foibles of foxes!
Where do you go to see so many of these wonderful animals?

Very nice set of images!

Those are great Bill! BTW, I am coming up to my brother's house on Saturday and going out Sunday morning to shoot. Maybe I'll run into you.

Nice shots! I like the stretch in the second image.

Kurt, good, might see you Sunday.

John, where do we go? well that's a secret but there are loads of foxes in the Denver area, ask around your local nature people.
