Fox In The Snow

    Droopy eared momma.

    I raced out to Delaware yesterday at 5am in front of and then in the snow storm. The roads were not bad for almost all of the trip there, and for the trip back the roads were totally clear. I wouldn't normally plan to drive a couple hundred miles when a storm was in the area but we weren't supposed to get much snow and it all worked out.

    I'm pretty sure that the two foxes I posted before this image are her kits from last year.

      Your fox photos are excellent. The snow adds to the photos. Great color and beautiful animals.

      Fantastic shot, Jon! I was tempted to go out in the snow to take photos yesterday, but driving in it makes me nervous!

      This is awesome Jon, have you ever tried to feed her.

    15. Nikographer [Jon] (41 months ago | reply)

      Nope, and never would Larry. It's not my style, and probably violates federal law since it is on a national wildlife refuge and all.... And it would teach the animals that people are a source of food, etc.

      Sweet photo, love the snow flakes in the foreground putting this in a nice context. Well done. The foxes are among your best photos and must form a superb collection.

    17. Dean Forbes (41 months ago | reply)

      great capture!

    18. fishlady_Montana (41 months ago | reply)

      Great. The snow on her fur is great. It is so neat that you know where these foxes are and are able to go back repeatedly to see them.

    19. Andrew Kandel (41 months ago | reply)

      The snow adds great atmosphere to an otherwise already interesting subject. Fantastic shot.

      So glad you got up there! I considered going today - have never been - but after spending 15 min. scraping ice I decided to stick closer to home.
