Sly Visitor

No, I haven't been visited by anyone else hiding behind a nipr.mil domain name. But this visitor was as sly as a fox, because... well...



This gorgeous red fox followed a roaming cat nearly into our neighbor's backyard and then, maybe tiring of stalking the cat, loped down the hill as I ran to get my camera. As I set up for the shot - he was about 100 meters away - the fox put it's front paws up on a small mound of earth and turned to face me, sillhouetted against the morning sun.

Just beautiful!
