I really like this,

It has a super relaxed inquisitive look about it rather than the "I've copped you, what are you doing before I leg it" reaction to shutter noise. :wink:

I really like this too, I think the oof knapweed (?) in the foreground adds to the atmosphere as well.

Another cracker, John. Almost looks "groomed" - are you sure you didn't give it a brush first? :toast:

Thanks all- Your interest appreciated. Easing off a bit now with the shows coming up and a few eco surveys on the go. Will have to rely on stuff from a couple of months back.
Thanks again.

A beautiful capture John. Lovely relaxed pose from the cub.

I have had a pair of foxes coming to my garden for about 4 weeks now but cannot coax them here in daylight unfortunately = no photographs. Just the pleasure of watching them.

Love it John. I virtually never see these animals and am envious of anyone who can even get a badly focused and poorly composed shot of them. So for you to get such a bl**dy good shot - well, I'm sitting here turning green as I type!

Beautiful. Not much more to be said.
