Fox cub photo special

The cubs excelled themselves tonight. I was able to sit outside with them just 2-4 feet away from me at times. Needless to say it made for some wonderful photos. In fact I was so close that to help focus I was able to switch the camera to macro mode. I also reduced the flash setting a couple of notches to reduce flare.

    Priceless! Nature is always the most rewarding of entertainers.

    Your backyard friends are without doubt pure fox.

    Here is a link to, *playful fox meets trampoline.* This one seems lanky for a fox. Reminds me of a coyote.

    I have seen coyote play, and I swear they actually laugh. Sometimes they sing, but seldom is it opera.
