Foxes have very similar behaviors to cats…This one did the cat stretch before taking off to hunt
This mom (broken ear–named after her split ear) had 4 appoximately 3-4 wk old kits. The black ones are still genetically considered red foxes and have the tell tail white tipped tail.
Those eyes definitely say WILDlife.
It was a misty rainy day… so the atmosphere created a hazy backdrop. All I had to do was crop!
It was pouring as you can see…but mom was on the hunt for one of the THOUSANDS of bunnies on the prairie. The foxes were intoduced onto the islad in the 1800’s to reduce the rabbit population that was decimating their crops.
Sometimes you can’t tell the story in just one day. So this week I’m dedicating the entire week to the foxes of San Juan Island. It is just a day trip away from Sequim. Friends and I went up for the first time to see what all the fuss was about. Total cuteness–that’s what! Let me know which are your favorites…
The top photo was mom with the lil runt of the litter. This one was of two playing chase. THe one in the back was ALWAYS the trouble maker
When he tackled his sibling mom came over and scooted him off.
