My foxey friends

I am still having trouble with the new computer. The foxes have settled down now the workmen have gone. they are back feeding and have brought a friend with them, a hedgehog. They vanished from the garden two years ago after I found a mutilated remains of one in the garden.
These are pictures of  friends that I had while at a nature reserve. I was a regular visitor and volunteer and I got to know some of the creatures quite well.
I often visited out of hours and was able to get many pictures of the undisturbed animals but this all ended 10years ago when we moved. I am expecting some good results from the garden as soon as I get the computer sorted.

      Hello Frank, I get very excited at the prospect of what I can achieve each evening, like me one has to be patient.

    Hello Mike :=) Just beautiful! Foxes often seem to have a slight smile on their beautiful faces, or is it my imagination!
    All the best.

    These are beautiful images of your Fox friends, Mike. You have just reminded me that, sadly, it is a long time since I last saw a Fox - anywhere!

    Don't give up on that computer - you'll get there in the end!

    Best wishes - - - Richard

About Me

My photo
Evacuated during the second world war to a village in Yorkshire where I lived in the home of a good photographer for more than five years who taught me the basics and a great deal about nature. Well past retirement age I have been a wildlife photographer for more than 30 years. Red Kites have been my speciality for much of this period. I did spend several years snapping wheelchair athletes and organizing the British Road Race Championship. In the year 2000 I was awarded a distinction by the Royal Photographic Society for my portfolio on wheelchair athletes. Most of my pics are digital, using Sony cameras and Sigma lenses. I used to spend many weeks each year with friends in Wales which is close to the Elan Valleys where I got many of my raptor pics. I now get these pictures more closely to home, specially red kites and peregrines. I support my pension by selling my pics, cards, coasters, fridge magnets and key rings etc. at craft fairs, something I wish I had done much earlier in life. I give illustrated talks to clubs and societies on wildlife and other branches of photography that I have been involved in.
