A SPECIAL MOMENT

I have had interaction with foxes and badgers for nigh on forty years, but never had a fox approach in broad daylight to take food by hand.  This particular animal is the same vixen that has been coming to the kitchen door at night for chicken scraps.  Her confidence and trust which she has gradually gained was taken to a new level on Saturday afternoon.  In anticipation of something quite special, I had previously set up a camera tripod.  A special moment, captured for posterity. The moment at half speed comes at the end of the real time clip.
