Fox

Yawn

Update: Some, like my daughter, have suggested the fox is singing ("la, la, la..."). Interpret as you wish.

I was puttering away, taking photos for my monthly photo project with my DIY light box (I made one today inspired by a similar project here), when I looked up and out the kitchen window and saw the fox.  I let the family know it was in the vicinity, quickly changed lenses (macro to 70-300mm), checked my camera settings, put on my boots, and went outside.  The next fifteen minutes were bliss.  I had always wanted to capture a photograph of a red fox, especially with snow as a background.  Out of the numberous shots I took one or two were ok, but it was worth it to follow the fox around and practice shooting such a beautiful creature.  I love March break and being able to take the time to do this!
