I found this fox den right next to the road this weekend, so I set up on the on the other side of the road yesterday afternoon. I watched the kits play for 2 hours. There are at least 5 in this litter. I hope they stay out of the road! All pics are full frame.

Thanks Amber, Ben and Yarrow. The yawning pic was the first one that caught my eye when I was going through them.

Ben, next on my list are deer fawns!

Wow,

Terrific photos - How long did you have to hang around for these?

I love the one with the cub looking through the hole in the wall.

What's the lighting on these?
Is it just daylight?

[mjs1973]

Thanks Roger. For these, I didn't have to wait at all. I could see them through the hole in the wall as soon as I got there. It only took about 15 minutes or so for them to actually come out of the den. This den is right next to the road, and you can pull up and see them from your car.

Yes, it was late afternoon sun, coming over my shoulder. White balance was set to sun.

Thanks Paul. I'm still going through and editing these picks. I hope to take some more this weekend!

Awesome shots Michael. I am so jealous of the opportunities you've had over the past week or so with wildlife. I have no idea where to find creatures like that so I'll just stick with birds for now lol.

That's awesome! Great images, my fav is the lil guy yawning. Too CUTE!:thumbsup:

Michael, these are really good! The yawning image is a contest winner. If you haven't thought of entering these and the badger pics in some kind of contest, you should.

[mjs1973]

Thanks for the kind words Jaedon, Bev, Payn & Paul.

Paul, I did enter the yawning image in a photo contest this week, but I'm not expecting much from it. The contest is nation wide so I'm sure there will be a ton of people submitting pics. I will keep it in mind for some more local contests. Thanks again! Look for another fox kit post

Super photos, I'll have to go with the majority here and say the yawning shot is fantastic.
