About an hour ago I had a wonderful visitor who looked wet through to the bone after a heavy night’s rainfall, and looked a little worse for wear with what looks like a dirty cobweb strewn across his or her nose.
I photographs this young Red Fox (Vulpes vulpes) through the glass of my bedroom window as it walked across my garage roof, sat down for a short while, before moving off. I was afraid of opening the window for fear of frightening it off, as it already appeared somewhat skittish.
It has been some years since I have been able to photograph one of these wonderful creatures, so I was quite happy indeed.

Wonderful shots. He does look as though he had a rather rough night.

🙂 Yes, a young one, who appeared very nervous as well as very bedraggled.

I thought he looked like he may have just been chased off someone else’s territory!
