They Said he lived here
Some say he's a loaner
Others say he's a player and has raised many
Jeff saw him once for a fleeting moment
I think I saw his butt once !!!!! ............ Until TODAY :barb

    Hi Benjamin.. I love the fox shot. It seems you just don't see many fox any more. Not sure of their numbers now but growing up in Ohio they were always around. Probably another disappearing critter:cry . Nice capture !!

    This is one is more of a suburbia Fox :D
    He's blocked by the Ocean on the West and an encroaching civilization to the East. Really don't know how much longer his little range will last ne_nau.gif

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"
