A pretty shot of the same high altitude fox I shared a pic of a couple of days ago, this time offering a closeup view.

As I mentioned, this fox surprised me with an appearance at 12, 110 feet, not a critter you would normally expect to find in the rarified air of that altitude. It seemed to be on a mission, working its way to the highest point of the pass so I raced ahead and waited for it to come toward me and indeed it did. Here, it paused briefly looking forward the sun that was just clearing the rocks to the east making for a very nice portrait.

Have a fantastic #FoxFriday!
