My OperaFox Time!

It's a few days since I've posted on the blog, but this entry is going to continue from where the last blog ended... with foxes. Even better, we've been lucky enough to have a rare daytime garden visitor, so here are just a few images of Shutterbug. He is looking decidedly untidy, but that's just down to a heavy moult. Not that he isn't prone to the odd bout of scratching.
He also wandered up the garden...
... and then settled down behind the peonies.
He tip-toed across to the other side...
... and back again, with one final look before disappearing through the fence at the rear.
No sign of him yet tonight, but there was one very special guest in the garden. A little bundle of fox cub. Just one shot (it was startled by two angry cats fighting at the other end of the garden), but it's a start.
Camera note: all the adult fox photos taken with the Canon 7D and EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L USM IS lens. The fox cub was photographed with the EF 24-105 F4L IS USM lens.
