Day 205: Wildlife encounter


We drove up the coast today, stopping at various points and taking in the sights.  We spotted this fox at one place, and when he saw our car, he ran up to it and sat down...staring at us.  Obviously (and sadly) someone must have - at one point in time - given this fox some food, and now he was looking for a handout.  I did get some neat pics out of this encounter though!  And all I had to do was roll down the window of the car and point my camera out!
Note:  When I return home from vacation and have access to my regular photo editing software, I will try and clone out that white daisy that is right on top of the fox's head!  I find it too distracting in this image.

  3. Perfect! It is sad though when you think about it...taking the 'wild' out of wildlife will no doubt have a negative effect.
