Description
Please meet the one of the two kits! This is either Kestrel or Lark. The kits are 5 months old. They are adapting to having visitors invade their space and, as long as we maintain our place, they allow us to stay. They do not yet trust us; but they did eventually venture close....for fox kits. I think they are absolutely marvelous and beautiful!!! I truly have a new and profound respect for those DA artists who have gained the trust of one of these shy creatures in the wild. How lovely they are!!!!

Super nice pic.. yup they are fun to watch. I had the chance a few years ago to capture some really cool pics of a Red Fox family 2 years in a row.... I will never forget that time period. great close ups, and some neat personality pics.. they're in my gallery under the side folder that has the fox pics.
they were a challenge to get close to, and I had to come up with some interesting ways to get those pics...without spooking them or getting them too use to human contact. I wanted them to stay wild and wary.

Wow!!! Those are AMAZING pics!!!! I don't know how you manged them! These guys are in an enclosed space and are worked with by human staff every day and yet those wild instincts are still so strong! Such lovely things! I did get to be with the adults, which has been a dream of mine for a long time. I was going to give my camera to a fellow participant to take photos but she said she would take them on her camera and then send them to me. I only received 2 or 3. I want them all!!!!

Hi, Thank you!
yeah some of those pics were taken while hidden under a camo tarp...I snuck in before daylight laid down ,covered up and then spent the whole day there under it..worked really great, but I had to wait till dark before leaving...made for one very LONG day.
