Red fox on a gray day



When I first saw this red fox this morning he was standing on our dock in the drizzling rain. By the time I found my camera, snapped one useless photo (through glass, plastic & screen), then changed the dead battery, I was lucky to get any photos at all. But he didn't seem to have use of his right front leg and his left back leg, so he didn't move very quickly and he rested frequently. Of the 30 photos that I took, here are the best ...

Poor little guy, I wonder if he was hit by a car?

Last one's a charm. I love red foxes. Poor thing...I hope he heals.

Looks like the poor thing is starving - how sad.

Cool! But watch out--rabies is spreading fast in foxes.

Red Foxes are one of my favorite native animals to see.You did good in getting so many photos but I hope this one is okay.
