Red Fox

We vacationed in Nova Scotia the last 2 weeks & my one wish was to see a fox. Finally, after 11 days we found not one, but 2 red fox less than a mile from each other. I got our of the car to shoot this guy & he started to run. I said to him, "I only want to take your picture, don't run away." So he obligingly sat down & let me photograph him, even turning his head from side to side. The weather was overcast & drizzling so the light wasn't the best but I am happy to have my fox shots

Beautiful colors ,i love how the second shot is looking right at you. great captures.

How cool! Nice pics of a beautiful animal

Nice shots, Maureen. You obviously have a very persuasive way about you

Great captures Maureen. I actually prefer overcast to sunny. The lighting is pretty good in the first shot.

I will bet the overcast conditions made the shots even better, sunny days can make it tough to keep the white fur from looking blown out.

#2 for the win! Nice to see he was so cooperative for you.

Beautiful photos!

They make such great subjects.

We've got them in our neighbourhood, but I've never managed a good shot.

These are great!

We don't have any around here, at least to my knowledge so I was thrilled to see 2 in NS.

Did you see any puffins in NS?

Yes, even tho they were very scarce but we saw a few about 8 miles out at sea while on a whale watch. Our lenses are only 300mm so 100% crop was the only way we could prove we saw any.

Love the Fox pics, he or she is beautiful, and it was nice it let you take a pic of it. I think they are perfect pics

Good pics. Nice when you can scratch something of the bucket list.

Beautiful colors and image of the fox.

Awesome. Nice of him to wait around for you.
