Red Foxes
Red foxes are good multi-taskers
Red foxes can jump, run, swim, eat, sleep, groom, hug, hide, play, fight or just sit….
Red foxes climb trees, stroll through the reed, or lie lazily in the grass.
Hunting a mouse, slipping on the ice, frolicking through the sand, running after a rabbit, chasing away a potential competitor, nurturing the cute fox kits or playing with the lovely cubs. Red foxes may joyfully waggle their tails, submissively flatten their ears or defensively arch their backs. They might even fox trot, comparing the size of their mouths. Red foxes can sit as mindful as can be, stretch, yawn and relax like there’s no tomorrow. Just go with the flow.I like foxes from sunrise to sunset, in rain showers, on scorching summer days and in ice-cold snow showers. (already seen my red foxes in the snow?)
I like them in beautiful light, snow-covered scenes and under a rainbow and I like ’em just as much in the dirty mud.
Foxes are adorable, when grooming their fox kits or removing ticks from their partner and utterly cute when nurturing their babies.
They surprise me when they spontaneously do a perfect mouse pounce (that I always miss, due to the same spontaneity) or when they decide to go for a swim. I even like them, when they run away, completely ruining my photo, just when finally, after hours of waiting, everything seemed to come together.
Foxes are beautiful, always.
Comfortably Fox
But when they are totally comfortable, at ease…zen, when there’s nothing to fear, no hunger, cold or pain…that’s when I love them most.
Because….Happy Foxes Are The Best Foxes; Foxes have this talent to relax like there’s no tomorrow. I guess mindfulness must be their middle name and I’m pretty sure yoga and mediation were invented by red foxes.
Wondering what I’m talking about? Go see my Zen Fox Series! (also available as prints)

On a beautiful winter morning, when all the ugliness was devoured by a huge, cold white cloud. Only the beautiful fur of the red fox remained visible, like a sparkle of warmth and joy in a grey world..

That Foxy Face
A Fox Called Pinoccio Just like with human beings, every fox is different. And some are more different than others. This young fox was born with a slight jaw deformation (only visible en profile). This overbite resulted in the nickname “Pinoccio”, but more importantly; it made her even more unique.

Formerly, our winters used to be constructed with care; Some freezing, some thawing. As soon as you had finally dusted your ice skates and dug up your mittens, thaw had already set in. The first ice scraping from your car window, a hopeful little snowman and some modest ski-fever, interspersed with a daunting little thaw attack. And so, the winter would build up by fits and starts and in the end you could look back satisfied and ascertain that it had really been winter. But that was before the invention of instant winter! These endless long and ruthlessly cold winters are sooo nineteen-hundred-something. New & improved winters easily fit in one morning. Theoretically, they would fit neatly between the morning and evening rush hours, without causing the slightest inconvenience. Efficiency is key; some freezing, a bit of frost and a touch of white and here’s your winter scene. It might look like someone hastily emptied a huge bag of Styrofoam balls, but hey: white is white, isn’t it?! White: check, snow: check, frost: check. Fox; check. Anything else? But mind you, if you blink twice, your winter world will be gone. Those days of calmly leaking and thawing are over. Snow-free within no-time. This weekend we expeienced another instant winter. It started in the morning and it was over before lunch. So more than ever it was a matter of right place right time. Luckily I managed to be there on time and so did the fox!
