A Fox Encounter

 










A fox encounter!
I was hiking the Sugarloaf Path and saw a fox - I rarely see wildlife on my hikes and of course I didn't have my zoom lens with me. Turns out I didn't really need it as this fox was not shy.
He walked around a bit, sat down a bit, I watched him catch a shrew, then he walked right by me at close range, posed and gave me a smile and went on his way. Very cool!

Lucky you!
I remember seeing a pair of foxes and their kits running around at Cape Spear a few years ago. They were very tame, and the Ranger said it was because people were feeding them.

Different from the ones we see here. Quite a handsome one.
