I’ve shared a couple of pics from my encounter with this gorgeous fox near the top of Trail Ridge Road in Rocky Mountain National Park and, clearly have more! This was definitely one of those charmed wildlife encounters that when it is over, I am crazy excited and happy about.

The fox had gone up the road and disappeared around some large rocks. Rather than follow, I guessed it might emerge on the other side and, sure enough, it did. Initially it was focused on the tundra below, no doubt hoping for a pika or marmot meal for breakfast. Not seeing any, it looked around and seemed to be a bit curious about the human that had scaled the boulders in front of it and was taking its picture.

Have a fantastic #FoxFriday, everyone!
