The Living Forest (135) : Red Fox

While I was sitting on Christmas morning in a bird-watching hut, this Red Fox suddenly turned up right in front of the shelter and stood there for half a minute, probably completely starved by the cold frost.

Fortunately I had my camera loaded with a 800mm lens and could take a few shots of this striking animal.

It was a wonderful Christmas gift for me from nature.
