I would love the opportunity to shoot photos this spectacular.
All I need is a very expensive Nikon long Zoom lens, that is compatible with my Nikon D3300, a Photographer's Camera Blind, and a area where I know this cute critters live and play. Right now all I have is the Nikon D3300 and a Nikon 55-200mm lens, which I do not feel will be sufficient.

Thank you Silverman, don't be discouraged by the misconceptions about equipment needed to take good images. All the fox photos were taken with either a 300mm or 400mm lens. You could buy a 300mm f4 Nikon lens used in great shape. I used homemade blinds for years however the tragopan blind I mentioned was only $229.00. Other than a tripod you would have all you need. Much to much emphasis is put on equipment when the most important ingredient is spending time in the field learn about your subjects and how to get close without disturbing them. You can use your current camera and a GOOD quality 300/4 lens which can be had reasonably and in decent light you will be able to take high quality photos. Don't give up on what your desires are because you don't have the most expensive equipment, it is not always necessary. I would recommend you buy a prime lens and not a zoom as you will most likely get higher quality photos for the dollars spent, and don't buy anything slower than F4 if you intend to use autofocus. The fox photos did not even require autofocus. Go for it!

Nice Reply is appreciated, I have a Nikon 35mm 1.8g, 50mm 1.8g, 18-55mm kit, 55-200mm lens, no real funds at present time to spend on a 300mm, but thanks for your encouragement.
