Shot out the back door through two panes of glass. She has been coming around two or three times a week that we see. Yesterday I had put out scraps of deer meat for her. She would go up to them sniff and jump back as if afraid they would attack her. But we also had put out rancid sesame sticks and she would scarf them down.

I always have a camera sitting by my back door for deer, birds, or whatever. We live in the country and I can expect to see about anything. The camera always has a telephoto. This time it was a Pentax K-3 with a Pentax 300mm F-4.

Note to self: Clean the back windows. Another window would have provided a better angle and only been through a single double pane, but....

Nice!! She looks healthy and well fed. Also, I notice that she looks very different from the fox we have here in Jersey -- interesting.

The face and body look especially different. As a comparison, here are two that I shot through my back window in NJ (thermal pane).
