Default shot a nice fox today......

Look at this handsome fella. He was just sitting there in the trees off a range road, posing like a boss!

Glad I had my camera for this one, I like this picture

Last summer I saw a fox carrying a pheasant running in a gravel road ditch! Looked very surly and concentrated. Have you ever seen an arctic fox around High Prairie?

Foxes are one of the most underrated and beautiful animals in Canada. That is a great shot.

Never saw anything but red foxes around here.
I have seen a few more the last few years than before, so who knows, the population may be growing.......it would be so cool to see a color phase fox.

Great Shot. Seeing more foxes down south. Used to only see them on rare occasions. They are great to have around to keep mouse and pocket gopher numbers down!
