The quick red fox

I suppose it was quite slow and sleepy. Stopping by the side of the road (Highway 518- near Sprucedale, McMurrich/Monteith, ON), it waited for us.


I had an iPhoto malfunction, and despite having the time to take close-ups, and change the regular lens for the zoom, plus starting up my camcorder, while Mr./Ms Fox sat there, I apparently lost all my photos.

Mind you, having taken 200 photos in a hour and a half drive...it was excessive, but my computer wasn't happy!

These are screen shots from my video. Pretty poor quality, but better than nothing!

Many critters are around, remember to watch for them on the highways and slow down!

  3. That fox looks a bit out of it. I love your "This Bud's for You" shot. Still have a few tiny patches of snow from yesterday…but the temp is in the 40s so even that will be soon gone.

  6. Looks like she's deciding whether or not to cross the line.

    It's good to see a fox every now and then.

  9. Again, my favourite is the reflection of the trees in the little pond! Are you beginning to sense a pattern here?
    I wonder why the reflection of the sky is always darker than the real sky?
