This fuzzy little bundle of baby fox was curious about me. I was very fortunate that he was and I got a couple shots before they vanished. Mom's tail was wagging by his face. :)

I grabbed the camera just as this little guy started looking over at my apartment. Pictured through a fly screen window, I think I got its undivided attention.
He / she is such a cute little kitten. Pity about the fly screen, but what can you do.
Just as I decided that pappa had disappeared ( the mangy one) , Momma fox had moved her 5 kits into a woodchuck hole/ den about 80 yards from my house. Something I have been hoping would happen for the last few years. She is gone all day and night, feeding herself and her kids.They are so stinking cute.

Play fighting, moments later the adult came back.

Young male foxes (dog fox) have been found to travel 250 km to their new territory after leaving their parents.
I had created a completely different image for this week's theme (which I've also posted), but when I looked at the 2 next to each other, this one made me smile more. :)
The kitten is a very kitsch plastic brooch from the 1960s. The pink flower came from a plant on my kitchen window sill. No idea what type it is, but it created a nice contrast. :)

When I worked in the Arctic region of Alaska, I would use my offtime to photograph the wildlife. I found an Arctic Fox den and spent some time with the fox kits. There was a small building, about the size of an outhouse, that provided shade for the fox kits. After visiting the kits many times, they became accustomed to my presence. Laying down in the dirt, I took many photos of the kits at ground level. The orange background is the bright summer sun behind the kit. The kit was napping and woke up and stretched, this photo being part of the stretch.
I no longer work in the Arctic. When I did work there, I would leave home for two to three weeks at a time. The only thing I miss about working in the Arctic is the wildlife. I got to photograph the Arctic Fox, Red Fox, Polar Bears, Grizzly Bears, Musk Ox, Caribou, Lynx, Ring Seals, and many birds from ducks and geese to Peregrine Falcons and Bald Eagles.
I am hoping to vacation there sometime in the near future, this time, with my wife by my side.
Ardnamurchan never disappoints...
I'm just back from a two week trip to the peninsula on the west coast of Scotland. Lots of walking, exploring, a little bit of wild swimming and plenty of time with my favourites; the Pine Marten.
These two Red Fox Kits are trying to identity the photography hiding in a chair blind taking their picture. Fox kits are so much fun to watch and photograph.
A new location for the kits today, and thankfully I got in a few nice moments before I was spotted hiding in the tall grass. This adorable kit had just finished giving themselves a good old scratch.
These two fox pups/kits were exploring the construction site adjoining their den, soon playing and jumping in and out of the wooden box.
Thank you for viewing
For 122 Pictures in 2022 #98 "Spinning", this is a couple of RV-4 kit airplanes (with spinning propellers) flying over Resoft County Park, which is near the Alvin, Texas airport.
One thing I wanted to spend a bit of time doing while up in Ardnamurchan was camera trapping. Using a PIR at a selected spot, it triggers the camera based on movement. It gives a unique perspective, enabling you to capture photos you wouldn’t otherwise be able to.
In this case I was keen to show the Pine Marten that were visiting the cottage I was staying at in their forest environment. A little bit of fill flash was needed as it's quite dark in the wood, but I'm pleased with these.
This is my first go with the SplashArt Kit MKII taken on the 10th feb 2016.
I just used water, just to see what I could do? I am going to need to find out more about set ups.
This curious kit fox began walking towards me, but stopped in his tracks after his mom chirped an alert from the woods!
