Really been enjoying your fox images Allen, you have really captured their spirit and family orientated natures. :clap:

These are really fun images Allen. I think I like the second image with all eyes to the front best, but they are both great interactive shots. It is interesting that she makes the kit work for its food a bit, and doesn’t just drop it. It is a teaching moment I suppose. As Saundie has noted, this series of fox kits has been really nice.

Allen: good to see that you were able to stay with the family and get a series of photos. I like the lower photo a bit more as both foxes are looking out They are good behavioral shots and it is very easy to understand what is happening.

Beautifully captured !
In the first image, you may go more rectangular, if you like.
You may darken the grasses and images may benefit from slight boost in contrast and saturation as well.
