Pursuit

In the snow-covered Boreal forest of Canada I spotted this fox in the distance. I quickly went to the ground, trying to keep my lens clear of the snow, but low enough to get just the right angle. It’s a delicate balance of moving with efficiency, but also trying not to scare off the wildlife. Then I had to wait, watch, and hope that the fox would come my way. As luck would have it, the fox seemed almost as curious about me as I was about him. He interrupted his evening hunt to come my direction for just a few moments. He trotted a bit back and forth, and around some saplings, but then headed in my direction for just a quick few seconds. There was little light left in the sky that evening, and it was clear that he hadn’t had his fill for the day. So, after a quick inspection, he was off again in pursuit of dinner. After I got this shot, I remember just observing how he would go about the business of survival in this frosty habitat.
