Courtship - Red Foxes

Red Fox mating season has begun and these two have been enjoying each others company. I first saw them running and playing in the woods. Later, they were resting about 10 feet off the ground on a large fallen tree. In this image, the male is sitting behind the vixen. He seems very protective of her. They were busy looking at a rival male in the distance and didn't notice me. Hopefully, we will have little kits running around in the Spring.
