Two fox kits play on the tundra on Alaska's north slope. The fox on the left was napping when the other fox snuck up on it. As it pounced, the other fox rolled to it's side and the fight was on!

This provocation led to a four pup wrestling match.

O hai, I have moldy bread in my mouth.

Running in the first hour after sunrise.

So yesterday when I had the dog outside a fox came around the corner of the house and stopped. it looked at us for a minute and went back around the corner. It had been months since I have seen one and it was a reminder to always have a camera ready.

I have been sorting out photos i took last summer and found a few I didn't upload..

My own photo, with added touches in Photo Lab Pro app. Thanks for viewing.

A visit to the wood recycling pile is greeted by a local red fox that quickly found a mouse and ran away to eat it. My first fox encounter with the new camera!

Relaxed and hanging out at the edge of a clearing.

That wet spot on ice in front of the pup, is where its mom scrambled out of the water, after that thin ice broke off, when she jumped across the river to the other side.

The pup was curious and it circled around and crossed in a spot where the ice was frozen all the way across.

Smart pup. ;- )

Then, it came down and checked out the spot where

mom, had decided to jump across.

Something she often does.

Sh is a good jumper.

But, this time the thin ice broke and she ended up in the water.

From which she quickly scrambled out.

I just got the shots I took yesterday downloaded.

I haven't had time to check through them all.

There were more than 600 shots.

Yes, I do have a heavy "tigger finger".

Always, did even when shooting film.

Taken on Friday the 13th., no, less! :-)

Anyway, after a quick look, it looks like there are some fairly good shots.

So, I am pleased with yesterday's results.

This is a shot of one of the Little Females pups, from this years litter.

They grow up fast.
