Do You Know Anyone Else?

There is no doubt that I have been blessed to have so many interesting wildlife interactions occur while carrying my camera equipment. More often than not, what I see and record tends to be common - birds at feeders, birds taking flight, those sorts of images most might capture.

In the process of observing and photographing wildlife I sometimes see things most people will never observe. And, I sometimes record images most would not consider - such as critter bodily function activities.

Such was the case when Kristy and I were watching this red fox running across a snowy field. When you have to go, you have to go and this fox had to go. In the middle of its trek on the snow the fox stopped and squatted - even looking around - as it took care of business.

To prove this squat shot was not just a luck shot, I am going to share again another red fox bodily function image I recorded. I was busy watching this fox when the urge hit. Right in front of me and my camera the fox did what it had to do.

I ask you… how many people do you know that have witnessed these natural activities in wild red fox? Then I ask, how many have pictures to prove it? I bet not many.
