This is one of the three young Red Foxes we had a pleasure to observe with their mother at Prince Edward Island National Park in June this year. As I tried to approach, this one was trying to hide behind the grass - it was very funny.

Fero,

Very nice shot. He really does look like he is trying to hide behind those blades of grass-one time when the grass in front of the subjects face works to the photos advantage. Thanks for sharing.

You've captured the feeling here very well. Looks like he's trying to make himself invisible :)
Well done.

As Cheryl said, it is one of those times when the grass in front of the face and that inquisitive look all come together. Very successful.. Great going.

Cool shot. Like the look and the way the kit is hiding. Also like that you managed to keep the tail in. Super!

Fero,

Well done and I like him "hiding" behind those blades of grass.

Very alert expression on this young fox. Love the fobs in the grass. Very nice photo.
