Gray Fox



Finally got a good shot of something on camera that wasn't a bear. Don't know about everyone else but I'm getting a little tired of the bears. This one looks like a really nice gray fox. It is unusual to get a daytime picture of one as they are more of a nocturnal animal.
I have been using a scent dripper at the camera site higher up the mountain but haven't had much success. I had a dripper that wouldn't drip that I tried for two weeks. Last week I put my good dripper out and got...more bear pics. I was hoping the scent I was using would attract a wider variety of animals but no luck yet.

Nice catch! I think this is the first time I realized there is a little pond here. The bears are always interesting to me.

I always enjoy seeing the bears. Not something we capture on our cameras.

I love foxes . . . wish we had some on our property. I did see the tail of one disappear into the tree line a few roads over.

the animals in your woods are looking healthy. Nice bear shots but nice to see the gray fox. We have one in the area that has her young in the old neighbor's make-shift logging shack. She has her litter on the straw bed.
Kinda cool to see her and she sure keeps the mice population down. I don't mind having her for a neighbor.
life is good

Fun and instructive to read your blog. Me and my husband did not know that there were gray fox for real, I thought it was common red fox that had a grayer color. Now I read on. Wish you a good weekend / brita
