Really nice photo... Healthy looking gray fox?

 

[uhfradarwill]

Def a Grey. We don't see very many Red Foxes around here.

I Personally WILL NOT shoot these as I feel they are akin in beauty of Nature to the Hummingbird & Peacock all get the proverbial PASS! Racoon's Not so Much!

Apparently with your nice shooting You Had Choices!....Thanks, Great Photo!

I would never even consider shooting one of these beautiful animals!

Red Squirrels and Chipmunks, different story....

Damn rite!! But he doesn't have an Air Arms S510XL .22 cal Carbine with a 5x25x50 Vortex. I think I'm ahead of him on the leaderboard!!

Yes, having small predators around keeps the rodents in check. That fox hunts “everyday”.

Beautiful specimen. We have a Red Fox that makes the rounds here, but not as healthy as this one.

 

[LostinTejas]

That one is a beauty. Shot with the best tool. Well done.

It's been raining here for the last four days, now a clear evening. I guess everything is on the move!!

BTW Your Nikon DSLR is useless without a SD card inserted. Thanks to my wife for catching this on her cell!!

 

[oldmanblue]

Your going to need a bigger air gun....

Fun fact... That little grey fox is the only member of the canine family that can climb trees.

her/she/they/it/them? I don't know how to address them.

Well, @johnnyPDX, "THEY" is gender neutral. That is a beautiful and healthy grey fox. I would leave all such animals alone unless they become an issue, as with snakes etc, they are amazing at doing their part to keep down rodent population.

The babies are even called kittens, or kits. Fox are a fun critter to watch. We had a big silver colored "Red" that would hang around for a couple of years. Very fun to watch and interesting animal.

We all thought it was a male. Never saw it with a mate or young. Maybe he found a girlfriend and moved on.
