The Stare Down

Had quite the experience yesterday, late afternoon on the way home. Saw this fellow by the side of the road so pulled over to get some shots. I watched him go and hide among the trees so I walked closer to try and get some shots of him. He surprised me when he jumped out from his hiding place and started coming towards me. Yikes! This wasn't part of the bargain. I slowly walked backwards towards the car keeping a constant eye on him...he just kept coming towards me!!! Now I was getting nervous! I was greatly relieved to finally reach the car. I looked in my side view mirror and there he was just behind my car. I fiddled with my camera for a second to try and get some more shots but when I looked up he was gone. I was happy to get some shots but my heart was sure racing a little faster! LOL

nice shot and great story...the fox must have been hungry, and when he saw you, he probably thought his luck had finally turned for the better
