Big stretch and yawn for a red fox vixen

With four kits to take care of, this pretty lady spent many evenings running herself ragged catching dinners and keeping watch on the little ones. There were periods of down time when she would lay in the grass and just relax. They were fleeting though and never lasted long.

Here, after one such respite, she roused herself, stretched and yawned and then headed off to find something to feed her young ones with.

Taken in May 2019 at a spot not far from my home, I am hoping that this spring I find a few fox dens to watch. If you live in Colorado and learn of any, please do drop me a note – I always appreciate and reward tips! Have a fantastic #FoxFriday and weekend!
