Was driving my truck down a side road today and something caught my eye. My first thought was "That was not what it looked like." I backed up and spotted this guy asleep off the side of the road in some bushes. I got a couple of shots before he realized I was there and retreated out of sight.

Wonderful capture..!! Foxes are the one animal that make me wish I didn't have chickens and rabbits.

That's a very nice photograph. We have a few foxes around here, but I only see them crossing the road when I'm driving to work at 4:45AM. They never stop and pose.

Nice. I see stuff like that and either kick myself for having forgotten my camera or I end up fumbling around trying to get it set up while the critter hightails it out of town. I'm glad you got a few shots before he sensed your presence.

It was stone asleep until the shutter went off the second time. Then it was gone.
