Desert Fox

[Dipankar Mazumdar]

Dear All,
Desert Fox from the outskirts of the Tal Chapar blackbuck sanctuary. The Fox was catching a mid afternoon siesta under a clump of Prosopis Juliflora (Vilayati Kikar) when we stumbled across it. It didn't seem overtly bothered by our presence and let us obserb it from close quarters.

EOS 50D+300f4+ 1.4x II @ f8, 1/500, ISO 400

Look forward to comments

Cheers

Great to see this image. The looks tell us the story. Were you on foot? Depth of field seems to be ok. I would be tempted to click a few images with a narrow aperture. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,

Nice image of an important predator of our desert.Kailash Sankhala has observed : It lives,particularly when it has pups,in the same bushes in close proximity with its prey.Thanks for sharing.SaktiWild

Nice pose. The ears look nice and shows that it was alert to your presence. Good details. How close were you? Thanks for sharing.

Nice image of the desert fox. The large ears look lovely and the eyes though casual look attentive of the surroundings. The patch of shade seems to be helping the fox relax. Love the 'W' mark on its head. Thanks for sharing.
