Red foxes playing

Hi folks,

 

Last sunday I was shooting big raptors such vultures, kites and eagles. We left some carrion in front of the photo hide to attract them. 

 

Suddenly two beautiful young foxes came from the bush and ate some carrion. After this they started playing in front of me. They were about 15 meters far from me. Fortunately I was shooting with the Fuji XF100-400mm, so I got enough close to them.

Compliments, fantastic pictures, these and the others. Thanks for posting. I see the fox occasionally and other wild animals more often when cycling, but I do not carry a camera when I am on the bike.

 

Thanks man!!!! What kind of animals to you use to see while cycling? 

 

Cheers!

Small Carpathian Mountains: deer, mouflon, wild boar, once I saw a wolf & two cubs up above on the edge of a high cliff, owl, birds of prey. Bears are abundant in Slovakia but further away in the bigger mountain ranges. When I go to other parts of Slovakia then I ride the road bike, so I don't see many animals, but at home I use both the road bike and the mountain bike so I see animals quite often.

Agreed George!

 

Carpathians are the wildest area of Europe! I wish I could visit this amazing place! You are lucky living there!

 

I hope you see your pictures too! Don't hesitate to upload them here! 

 

Keep well

 

Thank you
