Thanks Con, yeah, these guys are usually very skittish but this one allowed me a bit closer of an approach. Perhaps it had something tasty in the grass there that it didn’t want to give up.

Very cute. Not the best animal at hiding.
Am I going to work? Am I just ending my day? Or lost in the pink?
Nice pic. It was nice to see you and your work recognized at Town Hall yesterday.
Very much well deserved.
Thanks Gray, it was fun to get up there and talk for a few minutes.
This poor guy looks like he’s not having a pleasant day.
does this attack like the other foxes,
Hey Michael, no these guys don’t attack. They do attack termites, however, their main food source.
looks like this fox has back problems
Great Pose & Photo!
Amazing that you could get 360mm shot of him, they have such sensitive hearing.
Keep them coming, they’re always a pleasure.
