Fox

Creeping silently, ears and eyes focused - alert
Suddenly pouncing, muzzle buried in snow - huntress
Trotting away, limp vole dangling - triumphant

Ruby on white marks the spot


A River of Stones

    How did you get that close?? Beautiful photo!

    Thanks for your condolences. Going to the funeral tomorrow. The only good in this is that our family gets to spend time together.

    Beautiful photo of the fox, Barb, - I have seen coyotes follow the same pattern, and you give us a fine description.

    I remember last year's fox - you have described his actions well.
